Question

What does the letter q stand for in the Hardy-Weinberg equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be the frequency of the recessive allele in a population  

The Hardy-Weinberg equations are  

p + q = 1

p² + q² + 2pq = 1

• p stands for the frequency of a dominant allele in a population.
• q stands for the frequency of a recessive allele in a population.
• p² stands for the frequency of homozygous dominant genotype
• q² stands for the frequency of homozygous recessive genotype
• 2pq stands for the frequency of heterozygous dominant genotype

Answer 2

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation.q is referred to  as the frequency of the recessive allele for a trait controlled by a pair of alleles (A and a).
