A population geneticist studying bird populations in the Amazon is trying to determine if a locus known to give bright plumage is in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium.  Below is their observed and expected genotype frequencies. Genotypes Observed Frequencies Expected Frequencies AA (red plumage) 0.42 0.41 Aa (Purple plumage) 0.22 0.27 aa (blue plumage) 0.36 0.32 Based on the observed and expected frequencies, how would you conclude whether the population was in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium?
