Prevalence of recessive gene


A further study finds that after 10 generation (˜200 years) a lot of inbreed has taken place in population. Two subpopulation 9 population A), consisting of 30% and 70 % of general population, respectively, have formed. Within population A, prevalence of recessive gene is 40%, whereas in population B it is 10 %

Suppose that in 25% of marriages both people are from population A, in 65% both are from population B, and 10% there is one partner from population A and one from partner B.( this information)
