If the population was very large and selection was the ONLY mechanism of evolution happening
If the population was very large and selection was the ONLY mechanism of evolution happening, what would happen to p over time?
The frequency of p would remain the same.
It would increase in frequency
You cannot predict what would happen top given these data.
It would decrease in frequency.
It would be equally likely to increase or decrease.
Homework Answers
The Hardy-Weinberg principle predicts that allelic frequencies remain constant from one generation to the next, or remain in EQUILIBRIUM if we assume that no selection will happen. But it's said in question that natural selection will happen, so the frequency can either increase and decrease.
The answer is option E.

The bighorn sheep (Ovis
canadensis) is a species of sheep native to North America named for
its large horns. These horns can weigh up to 14 kg (30 lb), while
the sheep themselves weigh up to 140 kg (300 lb). The sheep live in
harems, groups of one male and multiple females. Populations of
bighorn sheep have inhabited Alberta, Canada for thousands of
years. In bighorn sheep, males fight each other by banging their
large horns together and males that...

5. Which of the following statements is true about the theory of evolution? The focus of the theory of evolution is to explain the origins of life. According to the theory of evolution, life evolved entirely randomly. The focus of the theory of evolution is to explain how life diversified from the first living cells. According the theory of evolution, only the strongest and toughest can survive. 6. Which of the following best explains our current understanding of microevolution? Neither...

Focus on the evolution of the horn size in the Bighorn sheep population from 1950 to present. What would be evidence that the population evolved in relation to horn size (remember the definition of evolution)? There were more sheep with smaller horns because of mate choice. The genotype frequencies changed but the allele frequencies of H1 and H2 stayed the same. There was a change in allele frequency over time due to the hunting pressure. The population was in Hardy-Weinberg...

Their population mates randomly, has no net mutations in their

In the case of directional selection, if the advantageous allele (b) is recessive and a less advantageous allele (B) is dominant: A. b will be lost in the population because the dominant allele will increase in frequency by natural selection B. b will increase in frequency at the same speed as if it was a dominant advantageous allele, because what matters is the coefficient of selection and not if the allele is dominant or recessive C. b will increase in...
