Two STR loci were determined to have the following allele frequencies in the general population: STR A STR B Alleles: 1A: 0.1 1B: 0.4 2A: 0.55 2B: 0.4 3A: 0.25 3B: 0.2 4A: 0

1 A suspect in a criminal trial was genetically tested for these loci and was found to have the genotype (1A, 1A) for STR A and (2B, 2B) for STR B–homozygous for both loci. What is the probability that a randomly sampled person from this population would also have this genotype?
