Basic Genetics Question!! *10 points awarded*?
In order to calculate what H-W equilibrium should be, you take the percentage frequency of each allele. In other words, you take the number of occurrences of allele M and divide it by the total number of alleles (twice the population size, since each individual has two alleles) (call this number m), then the number of occurrences of allele N and divide it by the total number of alleles (call this number n). In H-W equilibrium, blood type M should occur in n^2 of the individuals, blood type N should occur in n^2 of the individuals, and blood type MN should occur in 2mn of the individuals.
