Question 23

Multiple Choice

A genetic study conducted over multiple generations found that the frequency of genotypes in the first generation were AA: 0.36, Aa: 0.48, and aa: 0.16.In the second generation, genotype frequencies shifted to AA: 0.16, Aa: 0.48, and aa: 0.36.According to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we can assume


A) random mating has altered gene frequencies.
B) gene flow has possibly shifted the gene frequencies.
C) mating in this population must be nonrandom mating.
D) gene flow has possibly shifted the gene frequencies AND mating in this population must be nonrandom mating.
