Using molecular clock, it was estimated that two species X and Y must have diverged from their common ancestor about 5 x 10^6 years ago. If the rate of divergence per base pair is estimated to be 0.06 per million years, what is the proportion of base pairs that differ between the two species now?

In humans, albinism (unpigmented skin, hair, and eyes) is due to an enzymatic deficiency, and it is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that in a small country of one million people (“Generation 1”), there are 500 aa albinos and 9000 Aa heterozygous carriers. Has the frequency of allele a changed between Generations 1 and 2?

#SCPH01 Biochemistry

In humans, albinism (unpigmented skin, hair, and eyes) is due to an enzymatic deficiency, and it is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that in a small country of one million people (“Generation 1”), there are 500 aa albinos and 9000 Aa heterozygous carries. If the Generation 1 follow the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
a) then the number of homozygous aa albino individuals would be equal to P2
b) there were 500 albino individuals in generation one.
c) then the number of homozygous aa albino individuals would be equal to q2
d) there were 25 albino individuals in generation one.
Which of the following is the correct prediction about the hardy-weingburg equilibrium?
