She notices that some fish within the population are black (BB or Bb), while a smaller subset seems to have an albino mutation and are white (bb). She observed the population and through sampling quantified the number of fish that were black or white, and the population size. These results are listed below. Observations: a. Population size = 5,000 fish total b. Black Fish: 72% c. White Fish: 28% Calculate the following: Remember to use the algorithm described with the sample questions in the introduction to the lab manual. Please round answers to the nearest hundreth (0.00 format) a. Frequency of homozygote dominant fish b. Frequency of heterozygote fish c. Frequency of the B allele  d. Frequency of the b allele  e.
