What is Gene flow
300
Name the requirements for Hardy Weinberg
1. Population size is very large (no genetic drift affecting gene understudy) 2. Population is closed (no gene flow) 3.No mutations are occurring at gene under study 4. Mating is random with respect to trait understudy (no sexual selection, selection, no inbreeding inbreeding at gene understudy) 5.All genotypes in population have equal chance of surviving & reproducing (no selection at the gene understudy)
