No disruptive circumstances must be present in random mating in a population for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur.
Mating must happen randomly.
No allele can give an advantage
No allele can give an advantage
The distribution of alleles does not change from one generation to the next
A container or system must be closed to prevent the exchange of matter with the surroundings, ensuring that all relevant interactions and reactions occur within a defined environment. This isolation allows for the establishment of equilibrium, where the rates of forward and reverse processes equalize, resulting in stable concentrations of reactants and products. In an open system, external influences can disrupt this balance, making it impossible to achieve true equilibrium. Therefore, maintaining a closed system is essential for accurate observations and calculations in thermodynamics and chemical reactions.
Yes, once the equilibrium of a system is disturbed, the system will react to establish a new equilibrium. This involves shifts in the forward and reverse reactions to minimize the disturbance and reach a stable state again.
True. Heat is transferred from a substance at high temperature to a substance at low temperature to reach thermal equilibrium.

Yes, population geneticists use the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation as a null hypothesis to assess whether evolution is occurring at a given locus. Deviations from expected genotype frequencies can indicate that evolutionary forces like selection, genetic drift, or gene flow are at play in a population.
The distribution of alleles does not change from one generation to the next
The relationship between the frequencies of three alleles of a gene in a population is that they must add up to 1 (100). This is known as the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The frequencies of the three alleles can be represented as p, q, and r, and the equation p q r 1 must hold true in a population for genetic equilibrium to be maintained.
