Answer:
Explanation:
It is given that
B is the dominant allele which represents the black color
and b is the recessive allele which represents the white fur.
B being dominant will result into black color fur for genotype "Bb"
Given -
Frequency of black fur allele (p) is
As per Hardy Weinberg's first law of equilibrium
Substituting the value of p in above equation, we get -
q represents the frequency for white fur allele
Frequency of white fur phenotype is
Frequency of homozygous black fur phenotype (BB) is
As per Hardy Weinberg's second law of equilibrium -
Combined frequency of homozygous and heterozygous black fur phenotype is
