p and q
Yes, the distance formula for a line segment was derived from Pythagoras' theorem.
false
In the Pythagorean Theorem b is not twice a. The formula is [ a squared + b squared = c squared].
The formula is A2 + B2 = C2. This theorem only works for right triangles. A and B are the legs and C is the hypotenuse.
If a new allele appears in a population, the Hardy-Weinberg formula cannot be used. This is because there is now no equilibrium.
Conditions of the Hardy-Weinberg EquilibriumRandom matingNo natural selectionNo gene flow (migrations)Large population sizeNo mutations
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
rarely
Hardy and Weinberg wanted to answer the question of how genetic variation is maintained in a population over time. They developed the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium principle, which describes the expected frequencies of alleles in a population that is not undergoing any evolutionary changes.
The statement that allele frequencies remain constant from generation to generation if certain conditions are met presents a condition of the Hardy-Weinberg principle.
mutation
Hardy-Weinberg Principle.
Mutation cannot occur
the phenotype frequency does not change
Mutations introduce new genetic variation into a population, which can disrupt the balance of allele frequencies required for the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. If a mutation increases the frequency of a particular allele, it can lead to deviations from the expected genotype frequencies under the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
Allele frequency is stable
