Question 1

What is the Hardy-Weinberg principle used for?

  • To track evolutionary changes
  • To calculate allele frequencies
  • To determine gene mutations

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about its primary purpose in population genetics.

Question 2

True or False: The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can be disrupted by natural selection.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how natural selection affects survival.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A population of 500 individuals has 250 A alleles and 750 a alleles. If 50 individuals migrate out of the population, how will you expect the allele frequencies to change?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the new total population size and how many alleles remain.

Question 2

Consider a population where the homozygous recessive genotype shows reduced survival. If the population can no longer maintain random mating and becomes smaller due to environmental factors, what might happen to allele frequencies?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how the survival of certain genotypes influences allele distributions.
