Question

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can be disturbed by

• A. Mutations
• B. Non-random mating
• C. Genetic drift
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

• The conditions to maintain the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are no mutation, no gene flow, large population size, random mating, and no natural selection.
• Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is disturbed by deviation from any of its five conditions.
  
• Hence, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can be disturbed by Mutations, Non-random mating and Genetic drift.
• So, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.
