A gene pool of a population contains the alleles 'H' and 'h'('H' is dominant). A sample of the population resulted in 28homozygous dominant individuals, 56 homozygous recessiveindividuals, and 40 heterozygous individuals. Using thisinformation, answer the followingquestions .
HINT: you should not be using the Hardy-Weinbergequation to solve the first five questions, but you might use it toanswer the last one.
A. What is the genotype frequency of heterozygotes?
B. What is the genotype frequency of dominant homozygotes?
C. What is the genotype frequency of recessivehomozygotes?
D. What is the allele frequency of 'H'?
E. What is the allele frequency of 'h'?
F. Based on the results above, is the population inequilibrium?
