If the actual alleles do not match up with the allele frequency predicted by Hardy Weinberg, what is happening?

• mutation

• migration

• evolution

• natural selection

If the dominant allele has a frequency of 0.6 what is the frequency of the recessive allele?

• p= 0.4

• q = 0.4

• p= 0.6

• q= 0.6

If the recessive allele has a frequency of 0.75 what is the frequency of the dominant allele?

• p= 0.75

• q = 0.75

• p= 0.25

• q= 0.25
