Think frequent. More of the allele in the populations gene pool and there is a change in the alleles frequency. Some goes for less of the allele.

What is when of allele is the number of times that the allele occurs in a gene pool compared with the number of times other alleles occur?

What is meant by alleles?
Allele frequency, or gene frequency, is the proportion of a particular allele (variant of a gene) among all allele copies being considered. It can be formally defined as the percentage of all alleles at a given locus in a population gene pool represented by a particular allele.
What is the relationship between evolution allele frequency and population?
Consider an organism as a collection of inherited traits. Now consider each trait to be the expression of a single allele. An allele is a variant of a gene. For instance, if eye colour is coded for by a single gene, then there may be an allele A that codes for blue eyes, and an allele B that codes for brown eyes. A population gene pool, then, is the collection of all alleles present in a population of organisms from a single species. The allele frequency is the number of times a specific allele occurs in the population gene pool. For instance, the allele frequency of the brown-eye allele may be higher than the frequency of the blue-eye allele, meaning that more people have brown eyes than blue eyes, in this simplification.Evolution is measured in terms of changing allele frequencies. For instance, in our example, we could measure the number of people with blue eyes in generation one, and then measure the number again in generation one hundred. If we see a significant shift in frequency, then evolution has occurred.Nota bene: this is not how it works in reality, but it's easier to explain it in such simple terms than if I were to go into the complexities of population genetics.
Allele in gene or gene in allele?
Alleles are the specific form of a gene e.g. gene for 'eye colour, allele for 'blue eyes'. Therefore the alleles are in the genes.
What is the alternate form of a gene?
The answer is allele

Explain what the term relative frequency means?
Number of times an allele occurs Ina gene pool camparing it's placement with that of fossils on other layers of rock
What is a variation of a gene that occurs at the same place on homologous chromosomes?
An allele.
What is meant by allele frequence?
How often a certain allele (or trait) occurs in a certain population.

Is allele a gene?
yes an allele is a gene

What is the alternate form of a gene?
The answer is allele
Alternative versions of a gene?
One or more forms of a gene that codes for a specific trait is also known as an allele
What is a different between allele and gene?
an allele is a gene that is the cause of hereditary variation
Is an allele bigger then a gene?
An allele is a gene. It is one form of a gene. For example, height in pea plants is controlled by one gene with two forms. A pea plant can be tall or short. There is a short allele and a tall allele for the gene governing height.
