Detailed explanation-1: -Relative frequency is the number of times an allele occurs in a gene pool compared with the number of times other alleles for the same gene occur.
Detailed explanation-2: -Relative allele frequency is the percentage of all copies of a certain gene in a population that carry a specific allele. This is an accurate measurement of the amount of genetic variation in a population.
Detailed explanation-3: -Allele frequency refers to how common an allele is in a population. It is determined by counting how many times the allele appears in the population then dividing by the total number of copies of the gene.
