Question

At the albinism gene, a population has a 10% frequency of the recessive “a” allele. If you sample two alleles from the population at random, what is the probability that you get an a/a homozygote (i.e., both of the alleles that you sample are “a”)? Assume the population is so large that pulling out the first allele does not alter the allele frequencies. Group of answer choices 80% 1% 10% 20% 19%
