You and 99 friends are on a three hour boat tour when theweather started getting rough and you were stranded on a desertisland. Three of you friends are carriers of the gene for albinism,but no one on the trip is albino. What percentage of the island’spopulation in the next generation do you expect to be albino?Carriers of this gene?Ă‚Â Ă‚Â
Assume that the albinism gene above also allowed individuals whoare carriers to avoid a deadly illness caused by consuming theseaweed that grows on the island – one of the few food sourcesavailable. Do you predict that will impact the frequency of thatallele in the gene pool?Assume that the albinism gene above alsoallowed individuals who are carriers to avoid a deadly illnesscaused by consuming the seaweed that grows on the island – one ofthe few food sources available. Do you predict that will impact thefrequency of that allele in the gene pool?
