Explanation:

Assortative mating is non - random mating where individuals with similar genotypes or phenotypes mate with one another. It changes the genotype frequencies in a population because like - genotypes are more likely to mate. However, it does not change the allele frequencies in the absence of other evolutionary forces, as the alleles are just being redistributed among genotypes.
