#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Consider a heritable autosomal disease with an incidence in the population of 1 per thousand. On average, individuals with the disease have 80% as many children as the population average. In answering the various parts of this question, assume that mating is random. Now assume that the mutation rate is zero, that the disease is recessive, and that the disease allele is maintained in the population by heterozygote advantage. Calculate the heterozygote advantage,

Consider the ABO “blood type” gene. This single gene has three alleles called A, B, and O. There are four resultant “blood types” (phenotypic classes), as follows:C
                               
Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. In Norway, the frequencies of the A and B alleles are 0.26 and 0.07, respectively. What is the frequencies of these six genotypes (AA, AO, BB, BO, AB, and OO);

Consider the ABO “blood type” gene. This single gene has three alleles called A, B, and O. There are four resultant “blood types” (phenotypic classes), as follows: C
                         
Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,  the frequencies of the A and B alleles are 0.26 and 0.07, respectively. You now examine the ABO blood types in a new population. You observe that the A, B, and O blood types all have equal frequencies in this population. What are the frequencies of the A and O alleles in this population?

Assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequencies of the A and B alleles are 0.26 and 0.07, respectively. You now examine the ABO blood types in yet another population. You observe that the AB blood type has a frequency of 0.50 in this population. What are the frequencies of the A and O alleles in this population?

Assume that mating is random. First, consider an autosomal recessive disease that is usually lethal in childhood, and that has an incidence among newborns of 1/3000. What mutation rate would be required to maintain this frequency in the population?
