I believe it would be (B) but i’m sorry if i am wrong.
Sorry but I do not understand your question
The answer would be, Heterozygous Genotype.
Hope that helps!!!!
"<span>The genes for melanin pigmentation remain turned on and prepare more melanin than usual to protect the skin from photo-damage when it is exposed to sunlight for long time" is the actual reason. </span>
The recessive phenotype is used first to determine the q squared value because it is only expressed when h0m0zygous.
<h3>What is a recessive phenotype?</h3>
A recessive phenotype is a phenotype which expresses the recessive trait of a gene.
The recessive phenotype is always h0m0zygous for that triat to be expressed.
In the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, the allele and phenotype frequencies are given as follows:
where;
- p^2 is the h0m0zygous dominant phenotype frequency
- 2pq is the heterozygous phenotype frequency
- q^2 is the h0m0zygous recessive phenotype frequency
Therefore, the recessive phenotype is used first to determine the q squared value because it is only expressed when h0m0zygous.
