In a certain population, the frequency of color-blind males is 1 in 100.
Assuming that the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium at this locus,
the frequency of color-blind females is approximately
A. 0.0001
B. 0.0005
C. 0.01
D. 0.02

This what i did:
p2+2pq +q2=1
p+q=1
1/100=.0010
q2=.0010
q=0.01
so I go with answer-c {lot of room for error} and I assume its autosomal reccesive???
Assuming no mutations, no migration, no selection, large pop. no selection

ı think A is true .we must solve this problem by assuming X and Y kromozomes,color blindness is carried by X
COLOR BLİND MALES=XY 0.01(FOR ONLY ONE X)
COLOR BLİND FEMALES=XX 0.01×0.01
=0.0001
