Answer:
Explanation:
the purple allele (C) is dominant to the pink allele (c).
The frequency of C represents p while that of c represent q. Using the formula p+q= 1
The proportion of pink flower is 153/1000 = 0.153. This is also the frequency of the genotype cc (q^2).
Thud to find q which is the frequency of the c allele,
q = √0.153
q = 0.3912
From the formula p +q = 1 we can find p p = 1 - 0.3912
p which is the frequency of the C allele
p = 0.6088.
B. the proportion of all purple flowering plants that are heterozygotes and homozygotes is 847 / 1000 = 0.847
Wouldn't the population then become a mix of both turning into purple.
