Biology

To calculate the frequency of the genotype bb using the Hardy-Weinberg equation, we need to focus on the frequency of the recessive allele (b).

Given:

1.Frequency of the dominant allele B = 0.3

2.Frequency of the recessive allele b = 0.7

The Hardy-Weinberg principle tells us that the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype bb (denoted as ) can be calculated using the frequency of the recessive allele b.

Step 1: Use the Hardy-Weinberg equation
