Can someone please help me with the following questions. Pleaseprovide an answer/explanation especially for the first three.

?. Suppose a population of flour beetles has 1,000 individuals.Normally the beetles are red; however, this population ispolymorphic for a mutant autosomal body color, black, designated bybb. Red is dominant to black, so BB and Bb genotypes are red.Assume the population is at HardyâWeinberg equilibrium, with equalfrequencies of the two alleles.

A) 0.125 red; 0.875 black B)0.875 red; 0.125 black C) 0.25 red;0.75 black D) 0.75 red; 0.25 black E) 0.5 red;0.5 black
