Please help!!!
Twelve percent of people in Ireland have red hair. What percent of this population is homozygous for non-red hair?

1. What is q2? (remember to convert to a decimal)____
2. What is q?(calculate the square root of your answer above)___
3. What is p?(p=1-q)____
4. What percent of individuals are heterozygous for this trait?(multiply 2pq and convert the decimal to percent)__
5. What percent of this population is homozygous for non-red hair?
1-(2pq+q2) ___

Respuesta :

Answer:

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium AND IF you assume that red hair is a simple recessive trait, then

q^2 = 0.12

q = 0.35 and p = 0.65

p^2 would equal proportion of population that is homozygous = 0.42, so 42% of the population is homozygous for non-red hair.

Explanation:

i looked it up on google

Answer:

Q=0.35 & P=0.65

Explanation:

Q=0.35 & P=0.65
