Question

Part A

Consider a population of wildflowers in which the frequency of the red allele C^Ris p = 0.7.

What is the frequency of the white allele (C^W) in this population?

0

0.3

0.49

0.7

Part B

This Punnett square shows allele combinations for all possible genetic crosses in the wildflower population described in Part A.

	CR p = 0.7	CW q = 0.3
CR p = 0.7	CRCR ?	CRCW ?
CW q = 0.3	CRCW ?	CWCW ?

What are the expected genotype frequencies in the offspring generation?

What are the expected genotype frequencies in the offspring generation?

0.49 C^RC^R(red flowers), 0.42 C^RC^W(pink flowers), 0.09 C^WC^W(white flowers)

0.49 C^RC^R(red flowers), 0.21 C^RC^W(pink flowers), 0.30 C^WC^W(white flowers)

0.09 C^RC^R(red flowers), 0.21 C^RC^W(pink flowers), 0.42 C^WC^W(white flowers)

0.09 C^RC^R(red flowers), 0.42 C^RC^W(pink flowers), 0.09 C^WC^W(white flowers)
