How can you tell if evolution is occurring?
Technical answer: The frequency of gene alleles changes.
Other possible answers: natural selection is occurring, mutations, etc.
genetic makeup of individuals
genetic structure
The collection of genes in an interbreeding population that includes each gene at a certain frequency in relation to its alleles.
Gene poolllll
Bonus pickup line: I wish I were Adenine because then I could get paired with U (^_-)
What do the variables stand for in the equation p+q=1?
P: frequency of dominant allele
Q: frequency of recessive allele
True or false: Is evolution partly genetic?
True
The leaving of a place of residence or habitat with the intent of living in another place. (skirt skee erk)

What is the other equation for allele frequencies?
(Not p+q=1)
p2+2pq+q2=1
Organisms being better adapted to survive and reproduce
natural selection
A blood disorder passed down through families which results in a condition that creates an inadequate amount of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin.
Side effects may include:
hehehe
ThALasSeMia aNemIa
Define genotype, phenotype, and allele frequency.
Genotype: inheritable genetic identity
Phenotype: Physical characteristic
Allele frequency: also known as gene frequency, is the frequency of the present allele, or variation of a gene
different genes in an interbreeding population
gene pool
Describes the frequency used to describe a condition of static, or unchanging, allele frequencies in a population over time.@_@
Genetic Equilibrium
If you were the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium Id be P and you'd be Q. Together we'd Be one.
What are all the qualities to meet Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?
Mutation does not occur
Natural selection does not occur
Migration does not occur
Every member of the population breeds
Every member produces the same number of offspring
Mating is random
The population is infinitely large
