Does natural selection on single-gene trait cannot lead to changes in allele frequencies?

Natural selection acting on a single-gene trait can lead to changes in allele frequencies within a population. If individuals with a certain allele have a selective advantage, they are more likely to survive and reproduce, leading to an increase in the frequency of that allele in the population over time. This process is known as directional selection.

How are terms gene locus and allele related?

A gene locus refers to the specific position of a gene on a chromosome, while an allele refers to different versions of the same gene that can exist at a particular locus. In other words, a gene locus is the physical location of a gene on a chromosome, while an allele is a specific variant or form of that gene found at that locus.
