If the frequency of the dominant allele increases, what happens to the frequency of the recessive allele?
In any population, should the frequency of the dominant allele or the dominant phenotype be higher?
Why?
What mathematical term(s) in the equations would represent the frequency of the recessive phenotype?
Which of these mathematical terms can be used to determine the frequency of the dominant phenotype?
If, in a question, you are given the frequency of the recessive phenotype, what variable (p or q) can you immediatly solve for? How?
If you are given the frequency of the dominant phenotype, what do you have to do before you can solve for either p or q?
