<strong>Lab</strong> 15: Populaon Genecs<br />

3. Remove each ss from the populaon – they died.<br />

4. The remaining beads survived and reproduced.<br />

5. Count how many red and blue beads remained (separately) and place twice that number<br />

back in the beaker.<br />

6. Repeat the process 7 mes.<br />

Quesons<br />

1. What is the remaining rao of alleles?<br />

2. Have any been selected against?<br />

3. Given enough generaons, would you expect one of these alleles to completely disappear<br />

from the populaon? Why or why not?<br />

4. Would this be different if you started with a larger populaon? Smaller?<br />

5. Aer hundreds or even thousands of generaons both alleles are sll common in those<br />

of African Ancestry. How would you explain this?<br />
