  3. Genes, Population and Alleles • Is there a relationship?

  4. Gene Pool and Allelic Frequencies • Gene Pool = • Allelic Frequency = • How can we use this information?

  5. Hardy Weinberg • Calculate Allelic frequencies in a given population • If we were to calculate the allelic frequencies what would we need to assume?

  6. Hardy Weinberg- Assumptions • Large population • No migration • No evolution hence no mutation • No selection pressures • No species selection • Allopatric Speciation does not occur

  7. Possibility of Alleles = • Total = 1 • So dominant and recessive alleles =1

  8. Hardy Weinberg • Recessive phenotypes need both RECESSIVE alleles • Homozygous dominant phenotypes need both DOMINANT alleles • Heterozygotes need one of each allele
