If the frequency of alleles in a population remains constant, the population is at Hardy- There are five conditions for It is very Weinberg equilibrium. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. important for you to know these conditions, so enter them neatly into the box below. CONDITIONS FOR HARDY-WEINBERG EQUILIBRIUM 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Concept 23.3 Natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow can alter allele frequencies in a population First, let’s try to summarize the big idea from this section. Scan through the entire concept to pull out this information. Three major factors alter allelic frequency and bring about evolutionary change. List each factor, and give an explanation. Factor Explanation Which of the factors above results in a random, non-adaptive change in allelic frequencies? Which of the factors above tends to reduce the genetic differences between populations and make populations more similar?
