What percentage of capture fruit flies explain heterozygosit


Problem: Malic dehydrogenase (MDh) can exist in two types, A and B. among all fruit flys captured in Austin, TX, 95.7% type A allele where detected and 4.3 % type B alleles were detected. Xanthine oxidase, another gene in the same fruit fly population, has five types of alleles. using the Hardy-Weinberg equation:

a) What percentage of the capture fruit flies demonstrated heterozygosity for MDh?

b) What percentage demonstrated type B? type A?

c) How many genotypes (list) exist for xanthine oxidase in this population?
