Explanation / Answer

Means p=0.04

For homozygous we use p2 =0.0016

Hence, the probability of homozygous T (p2) =0.0016

Here, p=0.04/100=4%

Means, 4% are the taster for the PTC

Means 400 in 10,000

p-q=1

q=1-0.04

q=0.96

Means, 0.96/100=96%

So, 10,000-400=9600

The hardy Weinberg principle directly relates allelic frequency to the phenotypic frequency because from the allelic frequency we can calculate the phenotypic frequency.

The hardy Weinberg equilibrium assumes no migration and no mutation in a population because hardy Weinberg does not applied on these situations

The hardy Weinberg principle does not apply to genes that are segregate multiple allele like ABO blood group equilibrium because hardy Weinberg does not applied on multiple alleles.

The hardy Weinberg equilibrium is neutral because hardy Weinberg equilibrium is not neutral.
