Organic acids are ubiquitous throughout the field of chemistry. Whether used as a solvent, a substrate, a strong acid, or in a catalytic amount as a Bronsted acid source, organic acids are as commonplace as glassware for the researcher.
where p is the frequency of the A allele and q is the frequency of the a allele in the population. In the equation, p 2 represents the frequency of the homozygous genotype AA, q 2 represents the frequency of the homozygous genotype aa, and 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype Aa.
We can calculate how much genetic drift we expect to find in a population if we know the effective population size. The expected variance in the frequency of an allele (call this frequency p) subject to genetic drift is: Var (p) = after one generation of genetic drift for diploid organisms.nder a scenario of pure genetic drift, the probability of fixation of an allele in a population is its initial frequency in the population. If the initial frequency of an allele is 0.01, then there is a 1% chance that this allele will be fixed in this population.
