The Hardy-Weinberg equation uses p + q = 1 and p² + 2pq + q² to predict allele and genotype frequencies in a non-evolving population, where 'p' represents the frequency of the dominant allele and 'q' represents the frequency of the recessive allele.
Hardy Weinberg Equation p + q = 1p(2) +2pq + q(2)p = dominant allele
