60 individuals have the genotype AA 28 individuals have the genotype Aa 12 individuals have the genotype aa What is the frequency of the A allele? Think of how many alleles in total? hint: add up the number of A alleles in this population: AA= 60+60 and Aa= 28. Add those together and divide by the total number of alleles.
