Question
In a population which is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. the frequency of the recessive genotype of a certain trait is 0.09. The percentage of individuals with heterozygous genotype is %
Explanation
Understanding Mendelian segregation reveals allele distribution and recombination generate phenotypic variation. Therefore Option NAT is correct because it follows segregation and linkage principles, which underpins key processes in genetics. This mechanism is extensively documented and reinforced by experimental data across multiple model systems and textbook discussions.
