What happens when a population is in Henry-Weinberg equilibrium?

When a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it means that the allele and genotype frequencies remain constant from generation to generation, assuming no evolutionary forces are acting on the population. This condition is met under specific criteria: no mutations, random mating, no natural selection, extremely large population size (to avoid genetic drift), and no migration. If these assumptions hold true, the population's genetic structure will stabilize over time, allowing scientists to predict genotype frequencies based on allele frequencies. Deviations from this equilibrium suggest that evolutionary processes are at work.


Do you get altitude sickness at the South Pole?

Yes, some people are extremely affected by altitude sickness and cannot remain at their duty stations. Altitude sickness, however, does not strike all workers or scientists.


What are the 5 conditions of hardy Weinberg?

The five Hardy-Weinberg principles for non-evolving populations are extremely large population size, no gene flow, no mutations, random mating, and no natural selection. An extremely large population size is necessary because the smaller the population, the greater the role chance fluctuations play in allele frequencies from generation to generation. It is important that there is no gene flow because that transfer of alleles between populations can alter allele frequencies. Similarly, mutations modify the gene pool by introducing/removing genes from chromosomes or by changing one allele into another. Random mating is important so that individuals do not preferentially choose certain genotypes in their mates. Also, there must be no natural selection because if individuals carrying different genotypes had different survival and reproductive success, then that would alter the allele frequencies.


How do extremely high elevations appear to affect population density?

Population is generally sparse at extremely high elevations. One reason is the severity of weather up there. Another reason is the difficulty of doing things required in order to sustain a community, such as growing food and breathing.


Why would it probably be difficult to determine the chemical and physical properties of a newly discovered synthetic element?

Any newly discovered synthetic elements are extremely radioactive and have extremely short half-lives and only a few atoms at most can be produced. At the moment, science is not able to isolate enough for a long enough time. Therefore, it would be difficult to collect and keep enough of the element to determine its chemical and physical properties.

What is the estimated population of Texas today?

The population of Texas in 2012 was 25 million people. The populations percent change is extremely high being above the 27 percentile range level.


How does extremely high elevations appear to affect population density?

Extremely high elevations tend to have lower population densities due to harsh living conditions, such as extreme cold, low oxygen levels, and limited access to resources. These challenges make it difficult for people to inhabit and thrive in such areas, resulting in sparse populations.

Why is India overpopulated?

India has an extremely fertile landmass which results in uncontrolled agriculture/food production. Regions of the world in high fertility have uncontrolled population growth whereas regions with low fertility and hostile climates such as Canada, Alaska, Scandinavia have very small populations and extremely less to no population growth.


Why isn't north America one of the 4 major population clusters?

The United States has less than 5 percent of the world's population. Canada has a large land area, but a small populatio n. Countries like China and India have over a billion people. Other countries in the world's four largest population clusters might not have extremely large populations, but they have high arithmeticdensities

What are the benefits of the number system?

The benefits of the number system is that everyone all over the world, despite their language can know what a math problem is asking. This makes it extremely easy for scientists in America to communicate with scientists in say, China.
