Hardy Weinberg Variables (pre-calculation)

p

• Frequency of Dominant Allele in a population

• Frequency of Recessive Allele in a population

q

• Frequency of Dominant Allele in a population

• Frequency of Recessive Allele in a population

What best represents

"in a given population, the frequency of the dominant allele for hair color is 80%"

• p = 80

• p = 0.8

• q = 0.8

• q = 80

What best represents

"in a given population, the frequency of the recessive allele for hair color is 20%"

• p = 20

• p = 0.2

• q = 0.2

• q = 20
