true
Allele frequencies always drift to some degree. The rate of drift may be slower in large populations, but it is never zero.

How do change Genetic equilibrium lead to speciation?

Allele frequency is altered by genetic drift, natural selection, migration, mutation, or nonrandom mating. This results in a change in genetic equilibrium in a population that is evolving. Evolution leads eventually to speciation.


Are genetic equilibrium and evolution the same?

No. Evolution is the change in allele ( different molecular forms of the same gene ) frequency over time in a population of organisms. No equilibrium there.


Any factor that affects phenotype can change allelic frequencies thereby disrupting the gentic equilibrium of population true or false?

True. Any factor that affects phenotype can impact the survival and reproductive success of individuals carrying certain alleles, which can lead to changes in allelic frequencies within a population. This disruption of genetic equilibrium can result in evolution occurring within the population over time.


How does genetic recombination influence how species change over time?

The genetic variation introduced during recombination provides new allelic combinations for natural selection to act upon.


What happen when a population is in a Hardy equilibrium?

Allele frequency is stable The phenotype frequency does not change.


The change in allele frequency?

Random change in allele frequency is called genetic drift.


Type of equilibrium that occurs when allel frequencies do not change?

the type of equilibrium that occurs when an allele frequencies do not change is dynamic equilibrium :)


What is genetic equilibrium and how does it describe a population in which the allele frequencies remain constant and do not change over time?

Genetic equilibrium is a state in which the allele frequencies in a population remain constant and do not change over time. This means that the population is not evolving and there is no change in the genetic makeup of the population.


What happens when a population is in Hardy m-Weinberg equilibrium?

Allele frequency is stable.(Apex)


The situation in which allele frequencies of a population remain constant is called?

That situation is called a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Not actually seen outside of the lab.


Which of the following events do biologists consider a random change?

you do not provide any choices, so it is impossible to answer your question as stated.


Is it likely to find natural population in hardy-weinberg equilibrium?

Allele frequency is stable
