Non-random mating refers to a situation in which individuals in a population choose mates based on specific traits or characteristics rather than randomly. This can lead to assortative mating, where individuals mate with similar phenotypes, or disassortative mating, where they choose partners with different traits. Non-random mating can influence genetic diversity and evolutionary dynamics within a population. It often results in changes in allele frequencies over time, impacting the population's overall genetic structure.
A population not undergoing natural selection typically displays a normal distribution, also known as a bell curve. In this scenario, traits are evenly distributed around a mean, with most individuals exhibiting average characteristics and fewer individuals showing extreme variations. This distribution reflects the genetic variation within the population, which is maintained through random mating and other factors like genetic drift.
Mean is the average.
I didn't mean what I said. What does antidisestablishmentarianism mean? My sister is mean. I don't like being mean. The mean of a set of values is the average. The mean temperature is much lower in the valley in spring.
The population mean is the mean value of the entire population. Contrast this with sample mean, which is the mean value of a sample of the population.
If repeated samples are taken from a population, then they will not have the same mean each time. The mean itself will have some distribution. This will have the same mean as the population mean and the standard deviation of this statistic is the standard deviation of the mean.

Nonrandom mating
A) Nonrandom mating
Non-random mating means that individuals of many species have a choice about which partners to mate with. In population genetics, allele frequencies are used to depict the amount of genetic diversity in a species. There is no current research to show nonrandom mating impacts a species genetic diversity.
Nonrandom mating occurs when individuals in a population choose mates based on specific traits rather than randomly. This can be influenced by factors such as geographic proximity, phenotypic similarities or differences, and social or cultural preferences. Additionally, selective pressures like inbreeding or assortative mating (where individuals with similar traits mate) can further drive nonrandom mating behaviors. Ultimately, these factors lead to changes in allele frequencies and can impact the genetic diversity of a population.

genetic drift, gene flow, mutation, natural selection and nonrandom mating ( sexual selection ).
no because the same species mate with the same spices!!
That forces are natural selection, mutation, gene flow, nonrandom mating, and genetic drift.
