1If the frequency of a dominant allele (A) is 0.7 in a population, what is the frequency of the recessive allele (a)?

Which of the following factors contributed to the evolution of smaller body size in the Channel Islands foxes?
3What does a 'valley' represent on a 3D fitness landscape graph?
4True or False: Simply being a dominant allele causes that allele's frequency to increase over time.
5What is the ultimate source of new genetic variation and unique alleles in isolated subpopulations?
6When is it appropriate to use the Hardy-Weinberg equation (p² + 2pq + q² = 1) to calculate a population's allele frequencies based on genotype frequencies?
7If a subset of a population favors two distinct phenotypic extremes (such as very small seeds and very large seeds), which mode of selection is likely occurring?
8Which of the following are examples of post-zygotic isolating mechanisms?
9What term describes the selection against hybridizing behavior between individuals from diverging populations?
10Under allopatric speciation, what is the primary cause of initial population divergence?
