Answer:

160

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Population of fruit flies = 1000

Population with red eyes = 640

Now,

q² for the population = 360 ÷ 1000 = 0.36

or

q = √0.36

or

q = 0.6

Therefore,

p = 1 − q

= 1 - 0.6

= 0.4

Hence,

The homozygous dominant frequency = p² = 0.4 × 0.4

= 0.16

Individuals we would expect to be homozygous for red eye color

= p × population

= 0.16 × 1000

= 160
