You discover a new population of cotton rats on Bermuda Island that have immigrated from the mainland on ships from different ports. You collect the following genetic data for the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (Ldh), shown in the table below. Use this data to answer the following questions.
What are the allelic frequencies for the new population? What are the population's genotypic frequencies? Is this population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Offer an explanation.
Rat # - Sex - Ldh genotype
1 - M - L1L2
2 - M - L1L1
3 - F - L1L1
4 - M - L2L2
5 - F - L2L2
6 - F - L1L1
7 - M - L2L2
8 - M - L2L2
9 - F - L1L2
10 - M - L1L1
