What is polymerism gene effect?
Polymorphism gene effect occurs when two or more clearly different phenotypes exist in the same population of a species. In order for this to occur, morphs must occupy the same habitat at the same time and belong to a population with random mating.
What are the conditions a population must meet in order to have genetic equilibrium?
1. No net mutations occur; that is, the alleles remain the same 2. Individuals neither enter nor leave the population 3. The population is large (ideally, infinitely large) 4. Individuals mate randomly 5. Selection does not occur

When multiple organisms of the same species coexist together what kinda results do you get?
Competition can occur between individuals of the same species, called intraspecific competition, or between different species, called interspecific competition. Studies show that intraspecific competition can regulate population dynamics (changes in population size over time). This occurs because individuals become crowded as a population grows.
