 You are a scientist who is using genomics to currently study a new bacterial species that no one has ever studied before. The following sequence is a piece of DNA within the coding region of a gene that you have recently sequenced.
 
You are using shotgun sequencing to determine the DNA sequence of the genome of this new bacterial species. For one strand of a 30-nucleotide long stretch of DNA, you get the following sequences out of your shotgun sequencing reaction. 
 
Choose correct 30-nt-long DNA sequence with the help of above-mentioned fragments

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?
