According to Hardy-Weinberg equation, p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1, where p is a frequency of the B allele, and q is a frequency of b allele. As the relative frequencies of the alleles in the population represent a percent or incidence of a certain gene variant in a population, the sum of the allele frequencies (B and b) equals 1: p + q = 1. As a result, if the relative frequency of allele B decreases, the relative frequency of allele b increases. In other words, the allele B is substituted by another allele (b) in a specific population.

What is the intersection between alleles in which one allele hides te affects of another allele

This type of interaction is called dominance. Usually in such case, the dominant allele encodes for the functional protein that results in the particular trait. The recessive allele encodes for...

In a certain species of chicken, the trait for color is codominant. If a chicken carries the allele for black and the allele for white, what would their phenotype be?

A dominant allele is an allele that shows the effect even if the individual has only one copy of this allele. If alleles are codominant, both alleles affect the phenotype...

The frequency of a recessive allele in a large randomly mating population is 0.2. What is the frequency of: (a) The dominant allele? (b) The heterozygote

a. q=0.2, and p+q=1. Thus, the frequency of dominant allele is 1-0.2=0.8 b. The frequency of heterozygote is 2*p*q. It is 2*0.8*0.2 = 0.32

In humans, if P represents the dominant allele for extra fingers and toes (polydactyly) and p is the recessive 5-fingered allele, which of these genotypes would indicate a person with five fingers?

A person with five fingers will be homozygous recessive and he can have only one genotype possible- pp.PP and Pp genotype would indicate polydactyly.
