A particular gene in a given population of individuals has two alleles, G and g. The frequency of the G allele equals the frequency of the g allele. What are the expected genotype frequencies, assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?

The frequency of the dominant allele in the population (p) is simply 1 - 0.02 = 0.98 (or 98%). Since 2 p q equals the frequency of hetero zygotes or carriers, then the equation will be as follows: 2p q = (2)

Explanation:

industry had made the u.s. the richest nation in the world at this time. the second industrial revolution caused growth in industry and transportation, which allowed increased trade between nations.
