Answer:

X-linked recessive inheritance

Explanation:

Since the disease is primarily present in males vs females, it is a s.ex linked disease.

In X-linked recessive inheritance, males tend to get disease b/c they only have one x (the other is y) which means if they get the bad "x" copy from mom then they definetely will get the disease.

Females can be carriers b/c they are XX. If they get a good copy from mom and suppose a bad copy from dad, they can still be healthy b/c the good copy is dominant. They will be carriers (cuz they have the bad copy) but themselves wont have the disease.

Answer:

0.7

Explanation:

Using Hardy-Weinberg equation of genetic variation being constant when disturbing factors such has mutation and others are removed.

p² + pq + q² = 1 and p + q = 1

where p² is the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype (RR) and q² is the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype (rr) and 2pq is the frequency of heterozygous genotype (Rr). p represent the frequency of "R" and q represent "g". since the coefficient against the green/green homozygote is 0.30 then

the fitness of the green/green homozygote = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7
