Multiple Choice
You are studying cannibals in Borneo and want to determine if a specific village population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the two co-dominant M and N blood type alleles (LM, LN) segregating at the single-gene locus. Choose the answer below that gives the correct expected number of M, MN, and N individuals and the critical value to which you will compare your chi-square value (see Table 3.7 for critical values) .
A) M = 357, MN = 525, N = 193; chi-square critical value = 5.991
B) M = 0.331, MN = 0.488, N = 0.180; chi-square critical value = 3.814
C) M = 357, MN = 525, N = 193; chi-square critical value = 3.814
D) M = 0.267, MN = 0.619, N = 0.114; chi-square critical value = 3.814
E) M = 287, MN = 665, N = 123; chi-square critical value = 7.815
