Explanation / Answer

Shorthorn and braunvien are the two populations that are in hardy weinberg equilibrium.

Explanation:

For a population to be in hardy weinberg equilibrium it must follow the equation : p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1

Here for Shorthorn population we have

p2= 0.36

2pq= 0.48

q2= 0.16

So 0.36+0.48.0.16= 1

Now p=?0.36

p= 0.6

And q=?0.16

q= 0.4

And 0.6+0.4= 1

So this population is in hardy weinberg equilibrium.

Similarly braunvien population is also in hardy weinberg equilibrium.
