Concept explainers

Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.

Consider a population of 150 mice on an island, with allele frequencies B = 0.20 for brown coat colour, and b = 0.80 for white coat colour. Brown (B) is dominant to white (b) and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Twenty-five homozygous brown mice from the mainland float to the island on an uprooted tree after a storm. What are the genotype frequencies before migration? What are the allele frequencies after migration? Now, suppose the twenty-five brown mice float away again on another tree without breeding, and the island is back to its original state. Allele frequencies on the island are back to B = 0.20, b = 0.80. On the continent, there is a large population of many thousands of mice, with allele frequencies B = 0.80, b = 0.20. One year, human ships begin moving back and forth between the island and the continent, and occasionally a mouse comes along for the ride, and stays and breeds. Equal numbers of mice ride in each direction. The shipping trade continues…
