Two Siamese and three Persian cats survive a shipwreck, and are carried on driftwood to a previously uninhabited tropical island. All five cats have normal ears (carry the F allele), but one carries the recessive allele (f ) for folded ears (his genotype is Ff ). Based on this information, calculate the following:a. Calculate the frequencies of alleles F and f in the cat population of this island. b. If you assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for these alleles (admittedly very improbable), about how many cats would you expect to have folded ears when the island population reaches 20,000?
