In a sample of 1617 Spanish Basques, the numbers of A, B, O, and AB blood types observed were 724, 110, 763, and 20, respectively. These blood groups are due to three alleles, I A , I B , and I O , with I A I A and I A I O having blood group A; with I B I B and I B I O having blood group B; with with I A I B having blood group AB; and with I O I O having blood group O. The best estimates of allele frequency in the Basque sample are 0.2661 for I A , and 0.0411 for I B . Calculate the expected numbers of the four blood group phenotypes and carry out a chi-square test for HWE given a significance level of 0.01. [30 marks]

Q4. Human blood is grouped into four types: A, B, AB & O. Type O blood can be transfused to anyone (the universal donor) while people with Type AB blood can receive any blood type (the universal recipient). A country is recruiting soldiers but unsuccessful applicants accuse there exists discrimination on their blood type—too many Type A & B applicants are rejected while too many Type O & AB applicants are accepted. Use goodness-of-fit test, test whether the number of...

Human blood is largely divided in to four blood groups (A, B, AB, and O) and also (separately) into             Rh-positive and Rh-negative. (There are also some very rare blood groupings, such as Mumbai, Lutheran, Kell, and Kipp.) This is very important in medicine, since a person may die or suffer serious harm if they receive a transfusion from an incompatible donor. According to the Stanford University School of Medicine Blood Center, the distribution of blood groups/types in the United States...

Your blood belongs to one of four genetically determined types: O, A, B, or AB. A bulletin issued by a large blood bank claims that these four blood types are distributed in the U.S. population according to the following proportions: 0.44 are type O, 0.41 are type A, 0.10 are type B, and 0.05 are type AB. Let’s treat this claim as a null hypothesis to be test with a random sample of 100 students from a large university. The...
