Frequency of allele a1 is 75%, p=0.75
Frequency of allele a2 is 25%, q=0.25
 If a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium then:
p2+2pq+q2=1
<span>p2  is the frequency of genotype a1a1 (homozygous),</span>
2pq is the frequency of genotype a1a2 (heterozygous),
q2 is the frequency of genotype a2a2
<span>The proportion of individuals with genotype a1a2 is then 2*0.75*0.25=0.375 (37.5%).</span>
