Question

Question 3 Not yet answered Points out of 1.00 Assume that the ability or inability to fold the tongue is controlled by a single locus with two alleles: the ability to fold the tongue is dominant and controlled by A allele, while the inability to fold the tongue is a recessive trait controlled by the recessive allele, a. A class of 100 students was asked if they could fold their tongues. Out of all the students in the class, 25 couldn't fold their tongues while the remaining 75 could. What is the frequency of the aa genotype in the class? Flag question Select one: O0.10 0.20 0.25 0.50 0.75

Explanation / Answer

Answer: 0.25

Ability to fold tongue= A = p(dominant allele)

Inability = a = q (recessive allele)

aa = q^2= 25/100=0.25
