a small population of salamanders lives on an isolated island in the pacific ocean. they mate randomly and have no predators or competition for food resources. is this population in hardy-weinberg equilibrium?



Answer :

In a population, a novel allele is introduced that boosts the fitness of creatures that possess it (for example, by a random mutation).

Hardy Weinberg Law: What Is It?

In the absence of any evolutionary impacts from one generation to the next,  and allele frequencies in a sizable random-mating population stay constant.

Calculating the genetic diversity of a population at equilibrium may be done using the Hardy-Weinberg equation.

After one cycle of random mating, if the allele frequencies differ from their initial values, the population is no longer in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, indicating that evolution has taken place within it.

haphazard mating, a sizable population, the absence of gene flow into or out of the population,  reproduction, or the absence of mutations
