Question
Chapter 27, Problem 1TC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The frequency of carriers for the disease in the population.
Introduction:
According to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium,
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1, where P is the frequency of dominant allele, q is the frequency of recessive allele.
Also we know, p + q = 1.
