Aspecies of fly has two alleles for the length of their legs. the allele for long legs is dominant, and is represented by p. the allele for short legs is recessive, and is represented by q. if 33 of 100 organisms have short legs, what is p

p² + 2pq + q² = 1 and p + q = 1

where:

p - the frequency of the allele for long legs which is a dominant trait.
q - the frequency of the allele for short legs which is a recessive trait.

p² - the frequency of dominant homozygote (with long legs)

2pq - the frequency of heterozygote (with long legs)

q² - the frequency of recessive homozygote (with short legs)

So, 33 of 100 organisms have short legs. The frequency of recessive homozygote is represented by q²:

q² = 33/100 = 0.33

⇒ q = √0.33 = 0.57

Using the formula:

p + q = 1

p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.57 = 0.43

Therefore, p = 0.43

the answer to your question is b

correct answer: false

while planning water activities, it is very important to consider the weather, because if we do not plan and are going for a surf, then it might be that the hurricane came and drown us or may carry us to long distance from where we can not come back. there are many reasons to take information about the weather when we are planning any water activities.

hence, the correct answer would be false.
