You are a population geneticist and you have recently visited a remote pacific island where you have discovered a race of giant purple-skinned, seven-toed, three-horned dragons. in examining the new race you have discovered that a small number of the dragons have only six toes as opposed to seven and it seems to be genetically inherited trait. after a population survey, you have found that in a population of 1,378 dragons, 174 of them have only six toes. assuming the six-toed organisms are carrying a recessive trait, calculate the gene frequencies and the percentage of homozygous dominant, heterozygous, and recessive individuals on the island

Question 4 using myplate's daily food plant for 2000 kilocalories as a reference, the servings from the protein foods group in this menu are a. adequate overall, and consistent with the dietary guidelines 2010 recommendations. b. short 2 ounce equivalents. c. inadequate in terms of the recommendations for a 2000 kcal diet. d. adequate overall, but inconsistent with the dietary guidelines 2010 recommendations.

Scenario 5 1) take 10 red and 10 black beans and place them, mixed, on the table. record the starting phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your starting population in the table provided (generation 0). 2) act as a predator. “capture” as many organisms as you can until you have reduced the population to three organisms. put them aside. at this point, the predators die. 3) the remaining organisms each produce 2 clonal offspring. multiply your organisms accordingly and allow them to mix on the table. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 1). 4) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 2). 5) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 3).
