Question

Put all the candies used in Problems 41 back into a single mound and then divide them into two piles, being sure that the frequencies of each color are the same in each pile. Make a note of the starting frequency of each color. Label one pile 'male' and the other pile 'female.'

Have one person blindly draw one candy from the male pile and one candy from the female pile. Record the colors as though they were genotypes.

Accepted Answer

Everyone. Let's take a look at this question together, the number of times a particular allele appears in a gene pool is defined as what is it? Answer choice. A allele population, answer choice B allele frequency, answer choice C allele genotype or answer choice D allele percentage. Let's work this problem out together to try to figure out which of the following answer. Choices describes the number of times a particular allele appears in a gene pool. So when we are talking about something and the number of times it appears, we are talking about the frequency. And in this case, since we are talking about the number of times a particular allele appears, we want to know the frequency of that allele in that gene pool, which we can use the term allele frequency to describe the number of times a particular allele appears in the gene pool. So that means answer choice B allele frequency is the correct answer. Since allele frequency describes the frequency of those particular alleles appearing in a gene pool.
