Solution: The frequencies of different types of genotypes in ideal population are described by the Hardy–Weinberg law: p^2 +2pq+q^2 =1 where p 2 is a frequency of dominant homozygotes, q^2 is a frequency of recessive homozygotes and 2pq is a frequency of heterozygotes. It’s based on simple equation: p + q = 1 where p and q are frequencies of dominant and recessive alleles in population. In order to find percentage of heterozygotes at first find frequencies of alleles in population: P^2 = 49% = 0.49, so p = 0.7; q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3; Then find frequency of heterozygote as 2pq = 2*0.3*0.7 = 0.42 = 42% Answer: The percentage of heterozygous individuals in population is 42%.

If the homozygous dominant genotype makes up 36% of the population what is the frequency of the dominant allele in that population?

According to the Hardy-Weinberg Law (p^2+2*p*q+q^2=1) a frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype is p^2 = 36%/100= 0.36, therefore the frequency of the dominant allele in that population is the...

If eighteen of the panthers are heterozygous and if homozygous recessive individuals die before reproducing, what is the genotype for the remaining two panthers?

They are homozygous dominant, because it is the only remaining genotype among the three possible.

What are the phenotype and genotype ratios for a mix between homozygous dominant flower with red (R) pedals and a homozygous recessive flower with white (r) pedals?

RR x rrF1: 100% RrIf complete dominance than phenotype will be 100% red flowersIf incomplete dominance – 100% pink flowers

In a random mating population of 20000, 16800 individuals are the dominant then how many individuals will be homozygous?

The number of individuals with recessive phenotype is 20000 - 16800 = 3200. Their proportion in the population is 3200 / 20000 = 0.16 As individuals with recessive phenotype can...

A homozygous tall corn plant is crossed with a heterozygous tall corn plant. a) which trait is dominant and how do you know?

The dominant trait is a tall, because it manifests itself in both a homozygous and a heterozygous state.

If you cross a homozygous dominant almond shape eyes with homozygous recessive round shape eyes, what is the probability that the offspring will have phenotype of almond shape eyes?

Almond shape eyes - dominant trait, let it be Rround shape eyes - recessive trait, so it will be rThe cross : RR * rrOffspring: Rr (so the phenotype -...

How many different genotypes would occur in the offspring of a cross between a homozygous individual and a heterozygous individual?

If the traits are inherited as dominant and recessive, the F1 offspring will all exhibit the same phenotype as the parent homozygous for the dominant trait.
