Neco 2022 Biology Question 28
Practice objective / multiple choice question 28 from the 2022 Neco Biology examination.
In a beetle population the dominant allele \(A\) (green colour) and recessive allele \(a\) (brown colour) have initial frequencies \(p=0.6\) and \(q=0.4\). Survival fitnesses are \(w_{AA}=1\), \(w_{Aa}=1\) and \(w_{aa}=0.7\). Additionally, each generation a proportion \(\mu =0.001\) of \(A\) alleles mutate to \(a\) (no back‑mutation). After one generation, what is the frequency of allele \(a\) (\(q'\))? Give your answer to three decimal places.
