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?

A wild-type fruit fly heterozygous for gray body color and normal wings was mated with a black fly with vestigial wings to produced 1000 offspring. Recombination frequency between these genes for body color and wing type is 20 %. What number of offspring that is gray body colour and normal wing?

In a particular species of mammal black hair (B) is dominant to green hair (b) and red eyes (R) are dominant to white eyes (r). If a BbRr individual is mated with a bbrrindividual the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring is 1 black-red : 1 black-white: 1 green-red : 1 green-white. However, when you mate these individuals you find that the phenotypic ratio of the offspring is 6 black-red :1 black-white : 1 green-red : 6 green-white. What could account for this difference?
