Question:

What is Hardy-Weinberg Equation?

Options:

p3+ 2pq + q3 = 1

p2 + 2pq + 4 pq +q2 = 1

p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1

p2 + 2pq + q2 = 0

Correct Answer:

p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1

Explanation:

The correct representation of the Hardy-Weinberg Equation is:

p2+2pq+q2=1

In this equation:

  • p2 represents the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype in a population.
  • 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype.
  • q2 represents the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype.
  • Together, these terms encompass all possible combinations of alleles in a population.
