Question 1

In a theoretical population where (A1) = 0.95 and (A2) = 0.05, µ = 1 × 10-6, and v = 1 × 10-7, what is Δq?
◦ 5.00 × 10-9
◦ 9.45 × 10-7
◦ 9.50 × 10-7
◦ 9.55 × 10-7
◦ 5.26 × 10-3

Question 2

In an insect species, survival in agricultural fields regularly sprayed with insecticide is determined by the genotype for a detoxification enzyme encoded by a gene with two alleles, A and D. Which of the following statements is consistent with the data?

GenotypeRelative Fitness
AA1.00
AD0.70
DD0.05

◦ This will likely lead to the frequency of the A allele being eliminated (f=0.0) and the D allele being fixed (f=1.0).
◦ Eventually, natural selection should lead to a balanced polymorphism.
◦ The D allele frequency will change faster as it gets less frequent.
◦ Both the A and D alleles should reach stable equilibrium frequencies that are maintained in a steady state.
◦ Directional selection will increase the frequency of the A allele at a pace determined by the intensity of natural selection.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
