In Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, p² represents

Correct answer: B. Homozygous dominant frequency

  • A. Heterozygote frequency
  • B. Homozygous dominant frequency
  • C. Homozygous recessive frequency
  • D. Total alleles

About Mendel's Laws of Inheritance

Mendelian inheritance explains how alleles separate into gametes and assort during reproduction, producing predictable genotype and phenotype ratios. Questions cover dominance, recessiveness, homozygous and heterozygous conditions, the laws of segregation and independent assortment, monohybrid and dihybrid crosses, test crosses and the limits caused by linked genes.
