Problem 6 - Entrance Test

In a Hardy-Weinberg population, the observed frequency of a recessive trait is 0.04. What is the expected frequency of the dominant allele if the population is in equilibrium?

Correct: A

Frequency of recessive genotype q² = 0.04 → q = 0.2. Dominant allele p = 1 - q = 0.8. Option A is correct.
