These data were obtained for 3 populations of amphipods. d. What evolution are process might explain why the two caves have such different allele frequencies? Give a reason for your answer.

Solution

Answer :-

Part a :- Near spring

For allele A 80+80+30=190/232=0.81

For allele (a) 30+6+6=42/232=0.18

Near Cave 1

For A allele 13+13+15=41/60=0.68

For a allele 15+2+2=19/60=031

For Cave 2

A allele 4+4+8=16/46=0.34

For a allele 8+11+11=30/46=0.65

This is observed frequency.

Part b:-Genotypic freq.
