Question

Which is not an assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equiLiBrium?

1) No selection
2) Non-random mating
3) No mutation
4) No migration

Answer 1

it's 1

Occurrence of (natural selection and small size in population) do not meet the criteria for a population to reach Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. (hope this helps!)

Answer 2

Non-random mating is not an assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Step-by-step explanation:

The assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium states that no change in allele frequencies will occur in a population if five conditions are met. These conditions include:

1. No new mutations occur.
2. No migration (gene flow) occurs.
3. A very large population size.
4. Random mating.
5. No natural selection.

Out of the given options, non-random mating is not an assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. In Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, individuals should choose mates randomly without any preference based on genotype.
