Here are a few examples of Hardy-Weinberg practice problems for you to try:

  1. In a population of 500 individuals, 25 exhibit the recessive trait for a certain gene. What are the frequencies of the dominant and recessive alleles in the population?

  2. If the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype in a population is 0.36, what is the frequency of the heterozygous genotype?

  3. If the frequency of the recessive allele in a population is 0.2, what percentage of the population is expected to be carriers of the recessive trait?

These problems can help you practice applying the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to calculate allele and genotype frequencies in a population.
