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?

The enzyme urease enhances the rate of urea hydrolysis at pH 8.0 and 20oC by a factor of 1014. If a given quantity of urease can completely hydrolyze a given quantity of urea in 5.0 min at 20oC and pH 8.0, how long would it take for this amount of urea to be hydrolyzed under the same conditions in the absence of urease?
