In a population of 100 pea plants; 30 flowers have a genotype of WW, 40 have a genotype of Ww, and 30 have a genotype of ww. How many total "W" alleles are in the population. 100
30
60

30.

Explanation:

There are total 30 "W" alleles are in the population. "W" alleles are the dominant alleles in the population because it appears in the shape and appearance of an organism while on the other hand, ''w'' is the recessive allele that has very less chance to be appear in the presence of dominant allele i. e. ''W''. So we can say that dominant alleles are appeared in the population.

not necessarily. higher fitness requires the organism to be reproductive successful. for example, an organism at age 10 with 15 offspring is much more fit than an organism at age 15 with only 5 offspring.
