Question
Chapter 33.1, Problem 1CYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The genetic basis of the behavior.
Introduction:
Although some of the behavior of animals can be based on quick adaptations to the environment, recent scientific studies have shown that others can be inherited from generation to generation, and therefore are imprinted in the genetic code.
Epigenetics is a field in biology that studies how the environment can affect the expression of genes by triggering biochemical pathways that cause the tagging of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or histones (methylation, or acetylation). These modifications are not changes in the sequence of the DNA that can be inherited through generations (epigenome) and that affect how genes are expressed.

Every tutor here has got this wrong, don't copy off them.
Suppose that the population from question #1 (data is in table below) is experiencing inbreeding depression (F=.25) (and no longer experiencing natural selection). Calculate the new expected genotype frequencies (f) in this population
after one round of inbreeding. Please round to 3 decimal places.
