What genotype frequencies are expected when allele frequencies are stable under Hardy–Weinberg assumptions?
Build the conceptual model first, then test the same idea through the linked scientific representation or tool.

Build the picture before the terminology.
For a two-allele locus, let p and q be the allele frequencies, so p + q = 1. Under random mating, combining the allele probabilities gives the expected genotype proportions p², 2pq, and q².
