A new fossil of a mammal is discovered from Eocene deposits that is remarkable for its extremely short neck coupled with very long legs. What would you predict for the number of neck vertebrae that would be found in this fossil? - 7 Alleles are most likely to show linkage disequilibrium if they: ...

*The scenario: In a single, isolated population, mutations of each of the three types in options a-c below occur, and the resulting genotypes ultimately become fixed in that population. Other populations never experienced these mutations, so the original genotypes remain. Now we'll hybridize memb...
