Owl Monkeys [Biology]?

Question

19.In a population of owl monkeys, allele T (TT and Tt) codes for tufted tails. The frequency of allele t (tt), which codes for nontufted tails, is 40 percent. If a new predator starts catching the monkeys by their tufts and natural selection occurs, which of the following would most likely happen over time?

A.The frequency of allele T would increase.

B.No changes would take place because the allele governing tufted tails is not dominant.

C.The frequencies for the two allele forms would equal out.

D.The frequency of allele T would decrease and the frequency of allele t would increase.

Answer 1

D

Answer 2

D - since allele t is being selected for reproduction, it would increase throughout future generations.
