Answer 1

Answer a:)

Due to natural selection, the recessive allele is selecting out from the population as the offspring having homozygous recessive alleles are dying. This natural selection does not want the phenotype of the recessive alleles, as a weaker allele.

Answer b:)

After several generations, due to natural selection, the recessive allele will reach its minimum frequency and then it can be eradicated from the population if nature does not change.

Answer c:)

Yes, the alleles are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium because, in each generation, both alleles’ frequencies are cumulative aggregates to value 1 i.e. p+q =1.

Answer d:)

Evolution occurs when a particular trait is enhanced by natural selection. Here in the question, the dominant allele is evolving because it is continuously increasing its frequency over 5 generations.
