Frequency of each genotype (homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, heterozygous) d. Make a Punnett square and use the rule of multiplication.

within a randomly mating population of beagles, the homozygous presence of the recessive allele 'm' causes lemon color pattern, while the presence of dominant allele M produce a tri-color pattern. A survey was made in a town and of the 167 tagged, 83 has lemon color. Question: Determine: a. the frequency of the dominant allele; b. number of animals have the dominant allele; c. number of animals that are heterozygous; d. number of animals that have homozygous recessive gene.
in sheep, black wool is determined by a Dominant Allele (B) and white wool by a Recessive Allele (b). In a population of 200 sheep, 128 of them exhibit the dominant trait of having black wool and the rest have the recessive trait of white wool. Calculate the frequencies of both the (B) and (b) alleles. Calculate the frequencies of homozygous dominant vs.heterozygous sheep, as well as the homozygous recessives individuals.
