1. An Inuit population in East Greenland has 200 people with the following distribution of blood types: MM: 160 MN: 30 NN: 10 a) Based upon these data, calculate the frequency of the M and N alleles in the population: f(M): f(N): b) Letting p the frequency of the M allele, calculate the expected frequency of individuals with the genotype MM in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: c) Now, calculate the expected # of individuals with the genotype MM in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: d) Letting q- the frequency of the N allele, calculate the expected frequency of individuals with the genotype NN in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: e) Now, calculate the expected # of individuals with the genotype NN in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: f) Now calculate the expected frequency of heterozygous individuals with the genotype MN in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: g) Now, calculate the expected # of heterozygous individuals with the genotype MN in the population, if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: 2. Perform a Chi-square test to see if the population in question#1 above exhibits Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium: a) What is the null hypothesis? i) Calculate x²: j) Calculate the degrees of freedom: I k) Calculate the P-Value: 1) Should one Accept or Reject the null hypothesis? [Accept or Reject] m) Does the population exhibit Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for the alleles of this locus? [Yes or No] 1.
