The frequency of carriers for a rare autosomal recessive genetic condition is 0.04 in a population. assuming this population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium, what is the allele frequency of the recessive allele? the frequency of carriers for a rare autosomal recessive genetic condition is 0.04 in a population. assuming this population is in hardy-weinberg equilibrium, what is the allele frequency of the recessive allele? 0.2 0.4 0.64 0.8 not enough information is provided.

Option E, Not enough information is provided.

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of carriers for a rare autosomal recessive genetic condition

As per Hardy Weinberg's principles, frequency of carriers is represented by

The second equation of Hardy Weinberg's principle states that -

Thus, we have only one component i.e and no other values of p or q. Thus, the information provided is not sufficient to solve the question.

Option E, Not enough information is provided.

enzyme active site and substrate specificity

enzymes bind with chemical reactants called substrates. there may be one or more substrates for each type of enzyme, depending on the particular chemical reaction. in some reactions, a single-reactant substrate is broken down into multiple products
