A population has two alleles, A and a, initially at frequencies
of 0.8 (A) and 0.2 (a). If overdominance has been acting on this
population for several generations, you could reasonably
assume:
Group of answer choices
a. the population has reached Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
b. either allele is equally likely to go to fixation in a few
more generations
c. the frequency of A is unlikely to change in a few more
generations
d. the frequency of A is likely to go to fixation in a few more
generations
e. the population will continue evolving in response to
selection against the "a" allele
of 0.8 (A) and 0.2 (a). If overdominance has been acting on this
population for several generations, you could reasonably
assume:
