are homozygous dominant?
Solution:
2. If 98 out of 200 individuals in a population express the recessive phenotype, what percent of the population
are heterozygotes?
Solution:
Brown hair (B) is dominant to blond hair (b). If there are 168 brown hairs in a population of 200:
Solution:
Solution:
p2 = 0.62 = 0.36
Solution:
q2 = 0.42 = 0.16
double check: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1?
double check: 0.62< + 2 (0.6 * 0.4) + 0.42 = 0.36 + 0.48 + 0.16 = 1.
Solution:
bb = q2 = 0.36
q = b = 0.6
Solution:
p+q=1
p + 0.6 = 1
q = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4
Solution:
Solution:
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
p2 + 0.48 + 0.36 = 1
p2 = 1 - (0.48 + 0.36)
p2 = 1 - 0.84
p2 = 0.16
