Hardy-Weinberg Principle Flashcards
1
Q
allele frequency
A
the percentage of a specific allele within a population
2
Q
evolution
A
a process of change in a population through genetic variation over time
3
Q
gene flow
A
the transfer of genes from one population to another
4
Q
genetic drift
A
the random change in the frequency of an allele in a population
5
Q
genotype frequency
A
the percentage of a specific genotype within a population
6
Q
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
A
the condition in which both allele and genotype frequencies in a population remain constant from generation to generation unless specific disturbances occur
