In a population of owl monkeys, allele T codes for tufted tails ( TT and Tt). The
frequency of allele t, which codes for nontufted tails (tt), 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) The frequencies for the two allele forms would equal out.
C) The frequency of allele T would decrease and the frequency of allele t would
increase.
D) No changes would take place because the allele governing tufted tails is not
dominant.
