A student wants to know the effect a mutation might have on a species’ survival. The change causes a rabbit to have mottled (spotted) brown fur. The student runs a computer simulation for ten generations. What possible conclusions can you draw? Choose ALL that apply. Question 2 options:

Evolution occurred because the allele frequency changed over time.

Evolution is not occurring, mutation just introduced a new trait in the gene pool.

The rabbits with mottled brown fur have a selective advantage that gives them more camouflage from predators.

The mottled brown fur mutation is neutral because the other fur color traits still appear in the rabbit population.

The mutation had a positive effect, allowing those rabbits with the mottled brown fur to survive and reproduce better than those with the brown or white fur.

Is a hamster and guinea pig part of the same species ?

Approximately 90% of all cases of polycystic kidney disease are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. the disease is typically related to mutations to genes (pkd1 and pkd2). pkd genes can be found on chromosome 16. the disease occurs in approximately 1: 800 to 1: 1000 people. here is a hypothetical example. the dominant allele d will cause the development of pkd. the recessive allele is known as d. what genotypes would correspond to suffering from pkd? dd, dd what genotypes would correspond to being normal (not suffering from pkd)? dd consider that 1: 1,000 people have pkd in your population of 325million. consider that pkd is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. show you math for all of the following questions: what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is the genotypic frequency for dd? what is p? what is q? how many people in your population would have pkd?
