Suppose in a human population a mutation occurs that increases fitness by 10%. Do you think that this mutation will reach a frequency of 0.95 in less than 1000 years? If not, what is a more realistic timespan needed for this change? What factors influence the length of this period?Suppose in a human population a mutation occurs that increases fitness by 10%. Do you think that this mutation?Population biologists generally assume that if a gene has more than one allele and if the frequency of two alleles are 鈮?.01, the gene is polymorphic, which means that for management purposes two or more alleles exist for that gene in the population. Alleles whose frequencies are %26lt;0.01 do not contribute to polymorphism. This does not mean they are unimportant; they do contribute to genetic variance, but they are often considered too rare to manage for practical biological conservation
F generation = Total F desired/number of generations
Your question does not have generations, but you can put mutations...
