Solution

The correct option is A Evolution
  • The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele frequencies in a population are stable and are constant from generation to generation.
  • Various factors like mutations, recombination during sexual reproduction, Genetic Drift, Gene Migration and Natural Selection can alter allele frequency leading to evolution.
So, the correct answer is 'Evolution'
