Zygosity (the noun, zygote, is from the Gr****
zygotos "yoked," from

homozygote dominant and
homozygote recessive, the

phenotype of the
heterozygote lies
outside of the
phenotypical range of both
homozygote parents, and
heterozygous individuals have a

frequencies under random mating are f(AA) = p2 for the AA
homozygotes, f(aa) = q2 for the aa
homozygotes, and f(Aa) = 2pq for the heterozygotes. In the absence...
-
heterozygotes for the
alleles under consideration have a
higher fitness than the
homozygote. In this way
genetic polymorphism is conserved.
Evidence for balancing...
