Chapter 21 - Populations, Gene Frequencies, and Equilibrium
This web site from the University of Arizona provides a wide range of genetics exercises to try. Selection of an option opens a page of useful tips for solving that problem. Select areas that concern you and try some of the problems. For Evolution, 3/e, Chapter 21, you may wish to review problems dealing with sex-linked inheritance.
The "New York On-line Access to Health" site provides a series of simple advisories regarding genetic conditions of practical interest to human parents. You can quickly summarize some basic genetic princples with the site and learn some details of genetically-linked problems.
Principles of Mendelian genetics can be used to predict gene frequences given certain assumptions about genetic mechanisms and reproduction within a population. Review the assumptions and implications of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
