Show answer
homozygous recessive- In Hardy-Weinberg genotype frequencies, 2pq represents the frequency of ____ individuals.
Show answer
heterozygous- The Hardy-Weinberg genotype frequency equation states that p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = ____.
Show answer
1- Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium describes a population in which allele frequencies ____ from generation to generation.
Show answer
remain constant (do not change)- One assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is that ____ is occurring in the population.
Show answer
no mutation- One assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is that mating in the population is ____.

natural selection- Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium requires that the gene under study have exactly ____ alleles.
Show answer
two- Random changes in allele frequency that occur by chance, especially in small populations, are called genetic ____.
Show answer
drift
