Calculate allele frequency: If there are 40 butterflies in a population and 27 of them are yellow, what is the yellow allele frequency?

The frequency of the yellow allele in the 40 butterflies is:

Explanation:

The allelic frequency or genetic frequency is the variant of a gene found in a population.

The sum of the variants of the recessive gene with the normal ones of the population of the dominant gene give 1 (Or 100% of the population)

If a group of 40 butterflies has a dominant gene that makes them yellow, then:

Yellow: Aa. That is the dominant color of butterflies.

Another color: aa. That would the recessive color be in the butterflies.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
