    Hardy-Weinberg principle explains f

    A)  genetic equilibrium

    B)  non-random mating

    C)  evolutionary force

    D)  all of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    According to Hardy-Weinberg law of equilibrium. The relative frequencies of various kinds of genes in a large and randomly mating, sexual panmictic population tend to remain constant from generation to generation in the obsence of mutation, selection and geneflow. Hardy-Weinberg law do not explain the non random mating. In random mating every gamete has an equal opportunity of fusing with any other gametes of opposite sex. In Hardy-Weinberg law, the gene frequency will remain static only in the absence of evolutionary forces like mutation, selection, genetic drift and migration.
