Question

using hardy - weinberg to predict evolution. in a population, the allele frequency for red flower color remained at 0.7 and the allele frequency for white flower remained at 0.3 for six generations. this __ an example of a hardy - weinberg equilibrium in that __. multiple choice: 1. is not evolution did not occur 2. is evolution did not occur 3. is not evolution occurred 4. is evolution occurred

Explanation:

The Hardy - Weinberg equilibrium states that allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation in the absence of evolutionary influences. Since the allele frequencies for red and white flower colors remained the same over six generations, this indicates that evolutionary forces such as mutation, natural selection, gene flow, genetic drift, and non - random mating did not occur.

Answer:

is not evolution did not occur
