Question

A large population of moths contains 35% white moths caused by the double recessive genotype, bb. What are all the allelic and genotypic frequencies for this population? (info on the equation also included)

Answer 1

Answer:

So after searching, I found the answer on a school tutor website :)

p = 0.41

q = 0.59

p^2 = 17%

q^2 = 35%

2pq = 48%

to check:

.41+.59=1           so thats correct

.17+.35+.48=1     this is correct too

i hope that helped :)
