Distribution of Traits Quick Check
1. Which of the following factors may contribute to a population maintaining Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
*There are no mutations in the DNA of the population.

2. You are studying a population of penguins in Antarctica. Your DNA analysis of this population reveals that for the feather color pattern gene, 35 individuals are homozygous dominant, 35 individuals are heterozygous, and 30 individuals are homozygous recessive. After observing this population for several years, you repeat your DNA study and find that the current generation of penguins has 15 individuals that are homozygous dominant, 10 individuals that are heterozygous, and 75 individuals that are homozygous recessive. Which of the following hypotheses for this data would be supported by this data based on your understanding of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
*The recessive phenotype in this population may serve as an adaptation in this environment.

3. A scientist is studying the population of Cape Fox over four generations to determine if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. Use the data below to determine if this population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium.
*No, the population is not in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium because the frequencies of alleles have changed over the four generations.

4. Gene flow from one species to the genome of another by interbreeding between species is called
*introgression.

5. In which of the following populations would you expect to find a change in allele frequencies from one generation to the next?
*A population of turtles that routinely breeds with another closely related species of turtle.

'sup' is correct for the first three questions but my last two questions are different, so here are the answers to my quick check:
1. There are no mutations in the DNA of the population
2. The recessive phenotype in this population may serve as an adaptation in this environment.
3. No, the population is not in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium because the frequencies of alleles have changed over the four generations.
4. The brown color is an adaptation that is being selected by the environment.
5. The number of individuals displaying each phenotype in both the current generation and the offspring.
