Consider a fur-color gene for which there are two alleles in a population of diploid bears: B and G. BB homozygous individuals have brown fur. GG homozygous individuals and BG heterozygotes have grey fur. There are 640 grey individuals and 360 brown individuals. You do not know if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for this gene. Hardy-Weinberg equations: p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1; p + q = 1 Is it possible to determine frequencies of the B and G alleles using only the information provided? If so, what are they? Responses Yes. B = 0.36 and G = 0.63 Yes. B = 0.5 and G = 0.5 Yes. B = 0.6 and G = 0.4 No, more information is needed.
