Extra Question: The frequency of individuals homozygous for a recessive lethal gene (fitness 0) in a random-mating population is 1/10000. (a) if the population is in equilibrium between mutation and selection find the mutation rate? (b) If instead, the gene is maintained by heterosis, what are the relative fitnesses of the heterozygote and the normal homozygote.
