Answer 1

Complete Question

Imagine a large Source $(S_o)$ population of 500  files at a particular time we will call $T_s$.The files have brown ebony bodies. Suppose that 200 flies are ee, 150 flies are Ee, and 150 flies are EE. calculate the frequencies of the 3 genotypes for this population. do not leave your answers as fractions!

Answer:

The frequency of  genotype ee is  $f_{ee}= 0.4$

The frequency of  genotype Ee is $f_{Ee} = 0.3$

The frequency of  genotype EE is $f_{EE} = 0.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of files with genotype ee is $ee = 200$

    The number of files with genotype Ee is $Ee = 150$

    The number of files with genotype  $EE$ is $EE = 150$

The frequency of  genotype ee is mathematically evaluated as

      $f_{ee} = \frac{200}{500}$

      $f_{ee}= 0.4$

The frequency of  genotype Ee is mathematically evaluated as

      $f_{Ee} = \frac{150}{500}$

      $f_{Ee} = 0.3$

The frequency of  genotype EE is mathematically evaluated as

      $f_{EE} = \frac{150}{500}$

      $f_{EE} = 0.3$
