Question

Which condition for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium specifically eliminates random fluctuations in allele frequency?

विकल्प

• Random mating

• Very large (infinitely large) population size

• No natural selection

• No mutation

Answer 1

Very large (infinitely large) population size eliminates random fluctuations in allele frequency. Small populations experience genetic drift, where allele frequencies change randomly due to sampling error. Large populations buffer against these random changes.
