Solution
Hardy Weinberg Principle:
In the absence of evolutionary pressures, the allele frequencies in a random mating population stay constant, according to Hardy Weinberg equilibrium.
Conditions of the Hardy Weinberg Principle:
An extremely big population- Having a lot; being large in comparison to other things.
There are no mutations- Silent mutations, also known as quiet mutations, are a type of mutation that doesn't significantly alter the amino acid.
The protein continues to be functional and active as a result. As a result, the modifications are perceived as neutral in terms of evolution.
No gene flow or gene migration- Two populations could split into two different species if there is no gene flow between them and they become isolated from one another.
This procedure is referred to as "speciation."
Natural selection is not present-There is natural selection if and only if the average reproduction rates between the genotypes are statistically different.
Natural selection is not at work if there are statistically insignificant (i.e., random) differences in the genotypes' rates of reproduction.
Mating at random-Mating that is completely haphazard, with no concern for the mate's genetic composition (genotype),
