Respuesta :

The Hardy-Weinberg principle is used to characterize the distribution of the different genotype frequencies in a population which are not evolving. In the Hardy-Weinberg equation,

the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype is denoted by [tex]p^{2}[/tex];

the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype is denoted by [tex]q^{2}[/tex];

the frequency of the heterozygous genotype is denoted by 2pq;

the frequency of the recessive allele is denoted by q;

the frequency of the dominant allele is denoted by p.

In the absence of any evolutionary factor, the allele frequency of a population will remain constant and is called Hardy- Weinberg principle. It is an important equation in genetics.

The Hardy-Weinberg equation can be written as:

[tex]\rm p^{2}+ 2pq + q^{2} = 1[/tex]

The variables in the equation represent:

1. [tex]\rm q^{2}[/tex]

2. 2pq

3. q

4. p

5. [tex]\rm p^{2}[/tex]

The variables can be explained as:

  • The [tex]\rm q^{2}[/tex] denoted the frequency of the genotype containing purebred recessive alleles.

  • The heterozygous frequency is denoted by 2pq.

  • The frequency of recessive and dominant alleles are denoted as q and p respectively.

  • The purebred dominant allele is represented as [tex]\rm p^{2}[/tex].
