A rather large population of Biology instructors have 395 red-sided individuals and 557 tan-sided individuals. Assume that red is totallyrecessive, please calculate the following:(e) Conditions happen to be really good this year for breeding and next year there are 1.245 young "potential" Biology instructors. Assuming that all of the Hardy-Weinberg conditions are met, how many of these would you expect to be red-sided and how many tan-sided?
Correct answer: A. 518 red
- A. 518 red
- B. 215 red
- C. 307
- D. 111 red

About Evolution
Evolution describes heritable change in populations over generations through variation, natural selection and adaptation. Lamarckism explains inheritance of acquired characteristics, while Darwinism explains selection of favourable inherited variations; these historical explanations must not be confused with the modern genetic account of evolutionary change.
