Abiallelic locus, aa, has allele frequencies of a = 80% and a=20% in a certain population. another biallelic locus, bb, has allele frequencies of b = 90% and b = 10% in the same population. both loci are found to be in hardy-weinberg equilibrium. a recessive digenic disorder (100% penetrant) occurs only when one has the aabb genotype. it’s found that 15 people out of 10,000 in this population have the disorder. what was the expected frequency of the disorder? (assume that the "a" locus and the "b" locus segregate independently.)

In a classic experiment using pea shape, mendel conducted two separate genetic crosses. in the first cross the parent plants were “true breeding” for pea shape; one had round peas ( r )and the other had wrinkled (r). the first cross produced a filial 1 generation of all round peas. in the second cross, mendel bred plants from the filial 1 generation. this cross produced different results. out of approximately 1000 plants, about 75% were round and 25% were wrinkled.
