• C)Recessive mutations persist in a population at a frequency equal to the mutation frequency.
• D)The frequency of the mutant allele will ultimately approach 0 if there is no heterozygote advantage.
• E)The frequency of the mutant allele will be unchanged because recessive mutations are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
