Simulation 1: In order to establish a parent population that is comprised entirely of heterozygous individuals, place 10 of each allele into a pile or bowl, totaling 20 alleles in one bowl. The data of this parent population has been recorded in the Evidence Table for you. Randomly draw 10 pairs of alleles from the parent population. Determine the genotype of each individual and record the number of each genotype in the Evidence Table.
From the data recorded, calculate the frequency of the alleles and record this information in the Evidence Table.
1. What condition of Hardy-Weinberg principle is represented by Simulation 1.

2. We have now established a new allelic ratio. What might happen if this second generation were randomly mate? What condition of Hardy-Weinberg principle has not been met by this second generation?


3. Might one of these alleles eventually be lost from this population?
4. Explain why the frequency of the alleles in Simulation 1 did not change although the number of different phenotypes did change.
