1.1 Equations

Question 1

How is allele frequency calculated?

Answer 1

p+q=1
p = dominant
q = recessive

Question 2

How is genotype frequency calculated?

Answer 2

p² + 2pq + q²
p² = homozygous dominant
2pq = heterozygous
q² = homozygous recessive

Question 3

How is population size estimated?

Answer 3

(t1 x t2) ÷m2
t1 = no caught in first sample
t2 = no caught in second
m2 = no of marked individuals

Question 4

How is cardiac output calculated?

Answer 4

Stroke volume x heart rate
