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