Procedure II – Part A – Bug Population changes when there is a breeding preference for blue rimmed bugs Data Table – Enter your Final Bug Counts BB Bug Count Bb Bug Count bb Bug Count Percentage Tables – Enter the Final Bug percentages Tip: Bug Type Percentage = 100%  (Bug Type Count) / (Total Number of Bugs) BB Bug Percentage Bb Bug Percentage bb Bug Percentage Tip: Blue Rimmed Baby Bug Percentage = BB Bug Percent + Bb Bug Percent Blue Rimmed Bug Percentage Yellow Rimmed Bug Percentage Observations and Questions [16] Describe the bug population change results during this data run in terms of genotypes and phenotypes. [17] Do your results suggest anything about what the composition of this population might be at some distant point in the future? Defend your answer. [18] Based on the initial starting population, use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to predict the future bug population phenotype composition. Hint: Under the Background tab, go to the Summary of Formulas Needed for Calculations section, see the example titled Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, then do Step 1 and Step 2 using the initial starting population for this data run. [19] Is this population consistent with the expectations of the Hardy-Weinberg model, that is, is this population stable? Hint: Under the Background tab, go to the Summary of Formulas Needed for Calculations section, see the example titled Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, then do Step 3 and Step 4 for this data run.

Hint: Under the Background tab, go to the Summary of Formulas Needed for Calculations section, see the example titled Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, then do Step 3 and Step 4 for this data run. [22] Discuss what your analysis above indicates about the applicability of the Hardy-Weinberg criteria to this population. Which assumptions, if any, of the Hardy-Weinberg criteria are violated?

Hint: Under the Background tab, go to the Summary of Formulas Needed for Calculations section, see the example titled Using the Hardy-Weinberg Equation, then do Step 3 and Step 4 for this data run. [25] Discuss what your analysis above indicates about the applicability of the Hardy-Weinberg criteria to this population. Which assumptions, if any, of the Hardy-Weinberg criteria are violated? Note: The topic below depends on sharing and comparing Procedure II – Part C data with your fellow classmates. Your instructor will inform you about the sharing process including details about how, where, and when, you should post your results and answers to the questions presented below. [26] Compare your data run results to the results of the class as a whole. What population changes are possible? Are there any cases of extreme changes in population composition (e.g. all blue-rimmed or all yellow-rimmed)? What does the variety of population outcomes tell us about potential outcomes for small isolated populations that experience genetic drift? 1 TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved
