Transcript text: Calculate the genotype frequencies for the 6th generation and select the correct answers below:
What is the $A B$ genotype frequency?
What is the AA genotype frequency?
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the total number of individuals
The table shows the genotype counts for the 6th generation.
Count the total number of individuals by summing the counts of each genotype (AA, AB, BB).
Step 2: Calculate the frequency of each genotype
Use the formula: Genotype frequency = (Number of individuals with that genotype) / (Total number of individuals).
Calculate the frequency for AA, AB, and BB genotypes.
Step 3: Calculate the AB genotype frequency
From the table, identify the number of individuals with the AB genotype.
Divide this number by the total number of individuals to get the AB genotype frequency.
Step 4: Calculate the AA genotype frequency
From the table, identify the number of individuals with the AA genotype.
Divide this number by the total number of individuals to get the AA genotype frequency.
