Question
This is a classic data set on wing coloration in the scarlet tiger moth (*Panaxia dominula*). Coloration in this species has been shown to behave as a single-locus, two-allele system with incomplete dominance. Data for 1,612 individuals are given below:

- White-spotted (AA) = 1,469 
- Intermediate (Aa) = 138 
- Little spotting (aa) = 5

Calculate the following observed frequencies:

\( p = \) 0.95 

\[
\begin{align*}
AA & = p^2 = 0.9025 \\
Aa & = 2pq = 0.095 \\
aa & = q^2 = 0.0025 
\end{align*}
\]

Calculate the following which are expected for the NEXT generation:

\[
\begin{align*}
AA & = \\
Aa & = \\
aa & = 
\end{align*}
\]

In order to say that the population is in H-W equilibrium, there should be less than a 5% difference between the observed and the expected population. Is this population in H-W equilibrium?
