(a) What is the probability that in a randomly sampled individual, gene 1 is dominant?
(b) What is the probability that in a randomly sampled individual, gene 2 is dominant?
(c) Given that gene 1 is dominant, what is the probability that gene 2 is dominant?
(d) Two genes are said to be in linkage equilibrium if the event that gene 1 is dominant is independent of the event that gene 2 is dominant. Are these genes in
linkage equilibrium?
