 Which of the following statement is correct regarding mammalian cleavage?

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. In all mammalian embryos, the first cleavage is a normal meridional division; however, in the second cleavage, one of the two blastomeres divides equatorially and the other divides meridionally.
  2. Mammalian embryos increase exponentially from 2 to 4 to 8 cells, but frequently contain odd numbers of cells.
  3. Mammalian genome is inactivated during early cleavage and zygotically transcribed proteins are necessary for cleavage and development.
  4. Maternally encoded proteins can persist through most of the cleavage stages and play important roles in late stages of development.

In a typical Mendelian population, individuals carrying gene ‘a’ in homozygous condition suffer from phenylketonurea. Those with A in homozygous condition are normal. Others, who are heterozygotic with Aa, are carriers. If the frequency of ‘a’ in a population is 0.20, what is the percentage of normal individual in the population?

A population of insects is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a gene with alleles A = orange and a = yellow eyes. There are 91% orange and 9% yellow individuals in the population. If the fitness of the yellow phenotype suddenly drops to zero, what will be the allele frequency in the next generation?
