  • In this video Paul Andersen explains the elements in the Hardy-Weinberg equation; including the allele frequency and phenotype frequency. He begins with a brief explanation of phenotypes and genotypes. A sample problem is worked out and another problem is included.

    Given Info: 12% red hair (homozygous recessive or q^2)
    What we need: % for non-red hair (homozygous Dominant or p^2)
    Step 1. Solve for q^2
    q^2= 12% or (0.12)
    √(q^2) = √(0.12) (radical sign on both sides to get rid of the square)
    q= 0.35
    Step 2. Solve for p
    Equation= p+q=1
    So if solving for p (p= 1-q)
    p= 1- (0.35)
    p= 0.65
    Step 3. Solve for p^2
    (0.65)^2 = 0.42
    Step 4. Change it to percent
    0.42 x 100 = 42%
    -Thank you Mr. Anderson for all of your videos!

    hi mr bozeman it is currently 2023 and im taking ap bio in school with my exam in 3 days. I had no idea how to do the hardy weinberg equation because i was trying to solve it as an equation and you've really helped clear it up with me. not only that you've helped me for the majority of the year and im so grateful for that. its amazing that these videos with your concise and simple explanations can still be relevant 9 years later. keep it up!

    Thank you professor, you have contributed to my understanding of this complicated equation. For the last problem you have us, q=✓.12=0.346
    p= 0.654.
    Since p2+(2)qp+q= 1,
    2pq= 0.452. This is the percentage of the population that are heterozygous for non-red hair. The percentage of the population that is homozygous for non-red hair is 43%
