Widow's peak (W) is a dominant gene for hairline while a straight hairline is recessive (w). Determine the Phenotype frequency, Genotype frequency and Allele Frequency if a heterozygous dominant crosses with a homozygous recessive

Phenotype frequency ( widow's peak ) = 0.5

Phenotype frequency ( straight hairline ) = 0.5

Genotype frequency ( Ww ) = 0.5

Genotype frequency (ww) = 0.5

Allele frequency ( W ) = 0.25

Allele frequency ( w ) = 0.75

Explanation:

Given, Widow's peak (W) is dominant over straight hairline (w).

Parent 1: heterozygous dominant = Ww

Parent 2: homozygous recessive = ww

When Ww X ww :

     W      w

w  Ww   ww

w  Ww   ww

Half of the offspring are Ww and other half are ww so genotype frequency of Ww is 0.5 and of ww is 0.5. Phenotype ratio for widow's peak (Ww) is 0.5 and for straight hairline (ww) is 0.5.

Allele frequency = Number of that allele / Total number of alleles

f(W) = 2 / 8 = 0.25

f(w) = 6 / 8 = 0.75

c. movement because i took the test and it lets me review my answers

if the hares very faster than they are now, and thus the lynx's hunting success rate drops because it will be harder to catch them, the rate that will change will be the pray-rate. the pray-rate will change because more hares will be able to survive, thus more individuals for reproduction, so the end result will be increasing population of hares.

the predator-rate will remain pretty much the same because there will be more than enough pray, but the hunting success rate is stagnant.
