19.1- The Hardy-Weinberg Principle Flashcards
Gene pool=
The total of all alleles for all genes in a population
Greater variety in a gene pool allows ____
A population to more easily adapt to changing environment conditions
The sum of all genotype frequencies=
1.00 or 100%
There are ____ as many alleles in a population as there are individuals
twice
H.W principle states that given 5 conditions…
allele frequencies in a population will remain constant (equilibrium) in each generation
5 conditions of H.W principle
1) very large population size
2) Random mating within population
3) no net mutations
4) No migration (isolated population)
5) no natural selection
P + Q =
1.00
P=
frequency of dominant allele
q=
frequency of recessive allele
If P + Q are changing then…
at least 1 of the H.W principles isn’t being met
