The frequency of two alleles in a gene pool is 0.19 (A) and 0.81(a). Assume that the population is in
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
(a) Calculate the percentage of heterozygous individuals in the population.
According to the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium equation, heterozygotes are represented by the 2pq
term. Therefore, the number of heterozygous individuals (Aa) is equal to 2pq which equals
2 × 0.19 × 0.81 = 0.31 or 31%
(b) Calculate the percentage of homozygous recessives in the population.
