10. # HARDY –WEINBERG EQUILIBRIUM never occurs in nature
because there is always at least one rule being violated.
# HARDY –WEINBERG EQUILIBRIUM is an ideal state that
provides a baseline against which scientists measure gene
evolution in given population.
# HARDY-WEINBERG EQUILIBRIUM can be used for any
population; the population need not to be in equilibrium.
17. PROBLEM ON HARDY-WEINBERG
EQUILIBRIUM
A population of Cat be either black or white ; the black allele (B) is
dominant over the white allele (b). Population consists of 1000 cats,
Among them 840 are black.
Determine:
1. The allele frequency ;
2. The frequency of individual per genotype;
3. Number of individual for genotype.
