Detailed explanation-1: -1 = p2 + 2pq + q2 P and q each represent the allele frequency of different alleles. The term p2 represents the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype. The other term, q2, represents the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype.
Detailed explanation-2: -An allele frequency is calculated by dividing the number of times the allele of interest is observed in a population by the total number of copies of all the alleles at that particular genetic locus in the population. Allele frequencies can be represented as a decimal, a percentage, or a fraction.
Detailed explanation-3: -To compare different phenotype frequencies, the relative phenotype frequency for each phenotype can be calculated by counting the number of times a particular phenotype appears in a population and dividing it by the total number of individuals in the population.
Detailed explanation-4: -Solution : The given frequency of a dominant phenotype is 75% and, therefore, its recessive will be 25%.
