Consider the following population: Blood Type A B AB O
Number of individuals 533 84 67 316

What is the frequency of the IB allele in this population?

0.079

Explanation:

Using Hardy Weinberg equilibrium for  blood group;

p² + 2pq + q² + 2pr + r² + 2qr = 1

where;

p = allele frequency for A

q =  allele frequency for B

r =  allele frequency for O

N(p² + 2pr) = the number of allele for type A people

N(q² + 2qr) = the number of allele for type B people

N(2pq) = the number of allele for AB people

N(r²) = the number of allele for O people

N(r²) = 316

r² = 316/1000

r² = 0.316

r =

r =  0.56

To find the frequency of the allele;

N(q² + 2qr) = 84

q² + 2qr = 84/1000

q² + 2qr = 0.084

where;

r = 0.56

q² + 2q(0.56) = 0.084

q² + 1.12q = 0.084

q² + 1.12q - 0.084 = 0

Using the quadratic formula:

where;

a = 1, b = 1.12, c = -0.084

Since our value can be negative; then the frequency of the   allele in this population is 0.079.

answer

crater lake was formed when mount mazama produced a large eruption and collapsed to form a caldera, which then filled with water forming a lake.
