#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

The interaction of selection and inbreeding in determining the incidence of autosomal recessive diseases. Consider a gene in which recessive mutations occur at a rate of 10^-5. Assume a selective disadvantage S of 0.4 in homozygotes for the recessive allele. Now assume that, for thousands of generations, 10% of all children have been products of first-cousin matings (the remaining 90% being products of random matings). Calculate the steady-state value of q. Also calculate the incidence of the disease at steady state.

The interaction of selection and inbreeding in determining the incidence of autosomal recessive diseases. Consider a gene in which recessive mutations occur at a rate of 10^-5. Assume a selective disadvantage S of 0.4 in homozygotes for the recessive allele. Would q be expected to rise, fall, or remain unchanged during the first 10 generations after the cessation of inbreeding, Briefly justify your answer. What numerical value would q approach after thousands of generations with no inbreeding?

In animal cells and in the meristem cells of land plants, the nuclear envelope disintegrates during mitosis. This disintegration does not occur in the cells of most protists and fungi. According to our current knowledge of plant evolution, which group of organisms should feature mitosis most similar to that of land plants?
