NEET · Biology · STD 12 - 6. evolution
A population will not exist in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium if
- A there is no migration
- B the population is large
- C individuals mate selectively
- D there are no mutations.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) individuals mate selectively
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(c) : HardyWeinberg law states that allele frequencies in a population are stable and remain constant from generation to generation when there is random and nonselective mating. In case of lack of random mating, genetic equilibrium maybe disturbed.
