A population of frogs on a remote pond consists of 75 individuals. The frequency of the luminous color recessive allele (l) in this resident population is 0.70. in this pond population. Due to flooding, 25 frogs from a neighboring swamp are introduced into the pond. In the swamp population, the frequency of the l allele is 0.15. What is the expected frequency of the luminous color l allele in the new frog population in the pond?

A population of bacteria is exposed to a new antibiotic. After several days, most of the bacteria die, but a few survive and continue to reproduce. Eventually, the entire population becomes resistant to the antibiotic. What is the most accurate explanation for this outcome?

In a population of imaginary creatures called flufflins, the gene for fur texture has two alleles: F (smooth) and f (spiky). The three genotypes and their frequencies in the population are: FF = 0.25 Ff = 0.50 ff = 0.25 What is the frequency of the F allele in this population?

Tarsanemia is a (made up) rare, autosomal recessive human disease caused by a mutation in the tar1 gene. In the general population, about 1 in 40,000 individuals is affected by Tarsanemia. What would be the expected frequency of individuals affected by the disease if siblings mate?
