In a population of Mendel's garden peas, the frequency of dominant yellow-flowered plants is 50%. The population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. What is the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype in the population?

The frequency of the homzygous recessive genotype in this population is not much because there is only one copy of the recessive alleles.

Explanation:

An organism can be homozygous dominant, if it carries two copies of the same dominant allele, or homozygous recessive, if it carries two copies of the same recessive allele. Heterozygous means that an organism has two different alleles of a gene. People with CF are homozygous recessive.

Homozygous traits are either a combination of the same two dominant alleles or the same two recessive alleles. A hybrid trait is also known as a heterozygous trait, and is the pairing of a dominant and recessive allele. For example, the gene for seed shape in pea plants exists in two forms, one form (or allele) for round seed shape (R) and the other for wrinkled seed shape (r).
