The heterozygous population in the population of 200 mice is 84%. The correct option is B.
What is heterozygous?
Heterozygous means having two types of alleles for the same type of gene. These alleles show two types of characters for a single gene. An example is a person having an allele of brown and black hair.
The population is 200 of which 168 mice are brown
By the Hardy–Weinberg (HW) equilibrium
q² (bb) = (200 - 168) /200 = 32 / 200 = 0.16
q: √ 0.16 = 0.4
p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6
p² (BB) = 0.6 x 0.6 = 0.36
Thus, the correct option is B. 84% regarding the heterozygous population.
