The right answer is A.

The Hardy-Weinberg principle is a theory of population genetics, which postulates that within an (ideal) population, there is a balance of allelic and genotypic frequencies from one generation to the next.

For this equilibrium to be achieved, there must be no evolutionary forces such as mutations, migration, genetic derivatives, natural selection, the founder effect ...
