Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilbrium, we have

p + q = 1

where p = frequency of dominant allele and q = frequency of recessive allele. So

p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96

Consequently we have

• p² = 0.9216 = frequency of hom ozygous domininant genotype

• pq = 0.0768 = frequency of heterozygous genotype

• q² = 0.0016 = frequency of hom ozygous recessive genotype

since

p² + 2pq + q² = 1
