Answer:
p = 0.34
Explanation:
The green allele is recessive, meaning two copies of q (qq) are required to be green. Conversely, animals that are either pp or pq will be blue.
If 44 organisms are green, that means 44 are qq.
For genotype frequencies, the equation is:
homozygous dominant genotype + heterozygous + homozygous recessive = 100%
Which is denoted as
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
We know that q² = 44/100 = 0.44
To work out q, we can do = 0.66
For allele frequencies, the total must add up to 100%, so
p + q =1
We know that q= 0.66
So p = 0.34, because 0.66 + 0.34 = 1
