The hardy-weinberg principle is written as an equation: p2 + pq2 + q2 = 1. what does the q represent? the size of the population the size of the gene pool frequency of the dominant allele frequency of the recessive allele

The correct answer option is: frequency of the recessive allele.

Explanation:

When there are no mutations, no selective forces, no gene flow, no non-random mating and large population size, the population is said to be in Hardy- Weinberg equilibrium.

When Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is met, it is written in the form of an equation which is as follows:

where represents the frequency of the homozygous dominant allele, is the frequency of the heterozygous  allele while q orrepresents the frequency of the homozygous recessive allele.

chromosomes carry the genetic information for organisms. also, chromatin is the thread like dna which is located in the nucleus of an organism.
