Suppose variants at a single locus affect wing length in a species of crickets, with homozygotes for the L allele having long wings, homozygotes for the l allele having short wings, and heterozygotes having wings of intermediate length.In one population of 500 individuals, 340 have long wings, 120 have intermediate-length wings, and 40 have short wings.Under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the expected number of individuals with long wings is _______.
