You sample a population of butterflies and find that 42% are heterozygous at a particular locus. What should be the frequency of the recessive allele in this population?

آپ تتلیوں کی آبادی کا نمونہ لیتے ہیں اور دیکھتے ہیں کہ %42 کسی خاص مقام پر متضاد ہیں۔ اس آبادی میں ریسیسیو ایلیل کی فریکوئنسی کیا ہونی چاہیے؟

Answer: Allele frequency cannot be determined from this information

Explanation
  • While we know the frequency of heterozygotes, we need additional information about the homozygous genotypes to calculate allele frequencies.
  • Without the frequency of homozygous dominant or recessive genotypes, we cannot accurately determine the recessive allele frequency.
