In a population of heffalumps, there is a single gene that controls the presence of hair. the h allele, which is a complete dominant, makes a heffalump hairy, whereas the h allele codes for the absence of hair. if 36% of the heffalump population is hairless, what is the frequency of the h allele?

In the equation, p2 represents the frequency of the homozygous genotype AA, q2 represents the frequency of the homozygous genotype aa, and 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype Aa. In addition, the sum of the allele frequencies for all the alleles at the locus must be 1, so p + q = 1.
