Question
The Hardy - Weinberg equation is used to
Answer: Option A
:
A
The Hardy - Weinberg equation helps predict the allelic composition in the gene pool of the next generation, without having to physically examine the genetic makeup of each individual. According to this equation, if ‘p’ represents the frequency of occurrence of a dominant allele in a population, and ‘q’ represents that of the respective recessive allele, then p2+2pq+q2=1.
