A trisomy is a chromosomal condition characterized by an additional chromosome. A person with a trisomy has 47 chromosomes instead of 46.

Trisomy means the presence of an extra chromosome in some or all of the body's cells. This results in a total of three copies of that chromosome instead of the normal two copies. For example, Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is caused by having three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two copies.

This genetic condition is the result of a genetic mutation where your cells don't divide as they should. You can't prevent this abnormality from happening during cell division.

In the Hardy-Weinberg equation shown below, p is the frequency of the dominat allele, and q is the recessive allele
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Option D- frequency of the heterozygous qenotype

Explanation:

In the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium , 2pq stands for the genotype frequency of heterozygotes (Aa) in a population at the state of equilibrium. dominant homozygotes (AA) is represented by the p-square and q- square represents the recessive homozygotes (aa) frequency. p represents the allele frequency of A Allele and q stands for the allele frequency of the allele a. Summation of the terms gives an equal to 1(100%). The sum of all of these terms is always equal to due to the fact that the 3 frequencies in the equation are the available or possible allele combinations.

Hardy-Weinberg is relevant for it helps us in comparison of a population's actual genetic structure as time goes on along with the genetic structure we are to get if really population was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium state that is population was not evolving.
