Questions and Answers List

level questions: 18.1 Population genetics

QuestionAnswer
Gene pool- All the alleles of all the genes in a population
Allele frequency- The proportion of an alleles in a population
Hardy weinberg equilibrium- The idea that the frequencies of alleles in a population remains constant from one gen to the next (the equation allows us to calculate the no. of each genotype within a pop - this will be an estimate)
Assumptions of the Hardy Weinburg equilibrium mode1. Mating is random 2. No mutation 3. Large (infinite) population size (no genetic drift) 4. No differential survival or reproduction (no natural selection) 5. No migration (no gene flow)
Equationsgenotype frequency BB Bb bb p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 allele frequency B b p + q = 1
