Answer:

0.8

Explanation:

Allele frequency reveals to us how frequent an allele is within a population.

It is estimated by numbering the amount of times of it occurrences divided by the overall amount of copies of the gene.

Mathematically:

Allele Frequency,

= amount of times the allele occurs

____________________________

overall amount of copies of the gene.

The alleles frequency of a gene within a population is 1.

Let's recall the hardy Weinberg equation

p + q = 1

Where,

p = the frequency of dominant allele

q = the frequency of recessive allele.

Given,

Frequency of dominant allele (green color), p = 0.2

Frequency of recessive allele, q = ?

P + q = 1

0.2 + q = 1

q = 1 - 0.2

q = 0.8

Examples of matter and not
OleMash [197]
Well matter is basically any substance that has mass and takes up space. Example, you have a ball, or a table, or anything really. That is mass. But anything that doesn't take up space or has mass isn't matter. So, anything that doesn't have a mass or take up space is not matter. Hope this helped you understand. :D
