The wing color of a certain species of moth is controlled by alleles at a single locus

Subject:BiologyPrice: Bought3

The wing color of a certain species of moth is controlled by alleles at a single locus. Gray (G) is dominant to white (g). A scientist studied a large population of these moths, tracking the frequency of the G allele over time, as shown in the figure below.

 

Assuming that the population was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for this gene, what percentage of the moth population was homozygous recessive (gg) in 1960?
4%
32%
50%
64%
