**Question 10**After we discussed Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium in BIOL 142, you decided to poll another class to find out what distribution of eye colors would be found among the students. In a class of 223 students, you found out that 75 had brown eyes (genotype BB), 18 had blue eyes (genotype bb), and the remainder had hazel or green eyes (Bb). What are the allele frequencies of this population?- **A)** BB = 0.282, Bb = 0.65, bb = 0.068- **B)** B = 0.336, b = 0.081- **C)** BB = 0.336, Bb = 0.583, bb = 0.081- **D)** B = 0.63, b = 0.37**Answer**: Option C represents the correct genotype frequencies based on the given population data.

Step 1

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is a well-known concept in population genetics.
The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium suggests that the allele and genotype frequencies in a population remain constant from generation to generation if they remain uninfluenced by the changes due to evolution, migration, or evolution.
