Problem Set 1 1. Name 4 important differences between mitosis and meiosis 2. What does “alternation of haploid and diploid generations” refer to? 3. The frequency of allele A is 0.6 and the frequency of the allele combination AB is 0.2. What is the probability that an individual with allele A also has allele B? 4. The frequency of allele A in a population is 0.6. You sample 10 individuals from the population. What is the probability that 6 of them will have allele A? 5. In garden peas, height is determined by a single gene with tall being dominate to short. If two heterozygous plants are crossed, what proportion of the tall progeny will be homozygous dominant? 6. In humans pointed eyebrows are dominant to smooth eyebrows and widow's peak (downward pointed frontal hairline) is dominant to continuous hairline. What phenotypic ratio would you expect in the offspring from a cross between an individual heterozygous for both genes and an individual homozygous recessive for both genes? 7. Individuals with CC or Cc genotypes have crumbly earwax. Individuals with cc genotypes have gooey earwax. On Paradise Island there are 100 people, 25 of whom have gooey earwax. Assuming Hardy–Weinberg conditions, what is the frequency of the c allele on Paradise Island?
