In some varieties of sheep, the presence of horns is determined by an allele that is dominant in males and recessive in females. If 96% of males are horned, what proportion of females have horns? You can assume Hardy-Weinberg.

In cattle, the polled, or hornless, trait (P) is dominant over the horned trait (p). In an ideal cattle population exhibiting Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, 16 out of every 125 calves are horned. Calculate the frequency of the recessive allele in the population. Express your answer using two significant digits.
Joanna Q.
In sheep, the formation of horns is a sex-influenced trait; the allele that results in horns is dominant in males and recessive in females. Females must be homozygous for the horned allele to have horns. A horned ram was crossed to a polled (unhorned) ewe, and the first offspring they produced was a horned ewe. What are the genotypes of the parents?
