To estimate the number of foxes in an area, a researcher conducted a mark-recapture survey. In the first survey, he caught and marked N number of foxes. In his second survey a week later, he caught 120 foxes of which 90 were unmarked (recaptures). If you are told that the actual number of foxes in this area is 400, what is value of N in this area?

One population X has 750 AA, 0 Aa, and 250 aa; the other Y has 500 AA, 500 Aa, and 0 aa. After one generation of random mating, the genotype frequencies X and Y respectively if the population size remains 1,000.

Cross is made between a pure breeding plant having red coloured male flowers with a pure breeding plant having white colored female flowers. All of these offspring are white colored flower. Upon selfing of these F1 red flower plant produced both red and white flower. Which of the following is conclusion of these cross?

 In a human population, the gene frequencies of the alleles for the ABO system are as follows:

A = 29%                         B = 7%                                    0=64%

Assuming complete random mating and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,

What are the blood type A frequencies in this population?
