In the Hardy-Weinberg equation, p² is

A) an allele frequency.
B) the frequency of heterozygotes.
C) the frequency of dominant alleles.
D) a and c
E) none of the above

Hardy-Weinberg Equation

The Hardy-Weinberg Equation is a mathematical formula used to predict the genetic variation and allele frequencies within a non-evolving population, assuming no mutation, selection, or migration.

Allele Frequency

The proportion of a specific allele (gene variant) at a given locus within a population, shown as either a fraction or a percentage.
