In a population that is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium, 64% of the individuals express the recessive phenotype for a particular gene locus. what is the expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population?

Expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population %

Explanation:

Given -

Recessive phenotype expressed by an individuals for a particular gene locus is %

Now as per Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, the frequency of individual with recessive phenotype is represented by ""

where "q" is the frequency for recessive allele.

Thus,

q

Expected frequency of the recessive allele in this population %

1 and 6 for apex
