A Genetic Study Conducted Over Multiple Generations Found That the Frequency

question 30

Multiple Choice

A genetic study conducted over multiple generations found that the frequency of genotypes in the first generation were AA: 0.36, Aa: 0.48, and aa: 0.16.In the second generation, genotype frequencies shifted to AA: 0.16, Aa: 0.48, and aa: 0.36.According to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can assume

• A) random mating has altered gene frequencies.
• B) gene flow has possibly shifted the gene frequencies.
• C) mating in this population must be nonrandom mating.
• D) gene flow has possibly shifted the gene frequencies AND mating in this population must be nonrandom mating.
