<span>Therefore 56% of the alleles in this population are smooth alleles, 44% of the alleles are rough alleles.</span>

Answer:

0.565\\Or\\56.5%

Explanation:

Given,

Number of plants with rough seed = 19

Total number of plants = 100

Genotype frequency for "plant with rough seed" i.e q^{2} \\ = \frac{19}{100} \\= 0.19

So the allele frequency for "rough seed" = \sqrt{q^{2} } \\= \sqrt{0.19} \\= 0.435\\

As per Hardy weinberg equation, we know that sum of allele frequencies around the locus is equal to one .

Thus,

p+q=1\\

Substituting the value of q in above equation, we get -

p+0.435=1\\p = 1-0.435\\p =0.565 \\Or 56.5%

p represent the frequency of smooth seed.

Your answer would be B.
Because, all the other answers could result in a decrease of the population of the specie (but it wouldn't be cyclic).
