Which, if any, of the following statements is incorrect?

I. In X-chromosome inactivation, the inactivated X chromosome is epigenetically silenced by a transcript, the XIST RNA, that is produced from the active X chromosome.

II. The XIST RNA works by coating most of the X chromosome that is to be inactivated and then recruiting Polycomb proteins to condense the chromosome.

III. The inactivated X chromosome carries the kinds of histone modification that are typical of heterochromatin.

IV. The pattern of X-chromosome inactivation is made randomly but once it has been established the same pattern of X-inactivation is propagated through all mitotic and meiotic cell divisions.

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior

The frequencies of two allele’s p and q for a gene locus in a population at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are 0.6 and 0.4, respectively. After a few generations of inbreeding, the heterozygote frequency was found to be 0.10, The inbreeding coefficient in this case is
