Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder. In one population, the frequency of affected individuals (A 2 A 2) is 0.0004

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium

Explanation:

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium formula for allelic frequency is: $p+q=1$

Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium formula for genotypic frequency is: $p^2+q^2+2pq=1$

Here, $p$ =frequency of dominant allele

$q$ =frequency of recessive allele

$p^2$ =frequency of dominant genotype

$q^2$ =frequency of recessive genotype

$2pq$ =frequency of heterozygous genotype

frequency of affected individuals=0.0004(given)

here,affected individuals means the one's having Cystic Fibrosis and since it is recessive disease so we can write frequency of recessive genotype as: $q^2$ =0.0004
