Answer:
L allele: 0.575 (or 57.5%)
l allele: 0.425 (or 42.5 %)
Explanation:
Homo-zygous individuals have two copies of the same allele (i.e., either L alelle or l allele), while heterozygous individuals carry both alleles at a time (i.e., one L allele and one l allele). In consequence:
- Frequency of the L allele: [(450 x 2) + 250] / 2000 = 0.575
- Frequency of the l allele: [(300 x 2) + 250] / 2000 = 0.425
