Hаrdy-Weinberg We sаmpled pоpulаtiоn оf 1000 individuals for the trait of straight or arched eyebrows. The allele B codes for the dominant trait of straight eyebrows. The allele b codes for the recessive trait of arched eyebrows. Individuals with Bb alleles have slightly arched eyebrows. Use the information provided in the table below to and complete the steps. Use scratch paper to perform calculations and enter your answer in the space provided  Hardy-Weinberg Phenotype Genotype Total People # B alleles # b alleles Total Alleles Straight BB 490 980 0 980 Slightly Arched Bb 420 420 420 840 Arched bb 90 0 180 180 Total:   1000 1400 600 2000 Step 1: Calculate the allele frequency to find your p and q values (p + q = 1)Step 2: Use the Hardy-Weinberg formula to calculate the expected genotype frequency (p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1)Step 3: Using people, calculate the observed genotype frequencyStep 4: Compare your expected and observed genotype frequencies and determine if the population is evolving or not.  Make sure to provide your results for each step so I can give you credit.
