  • Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
    A theoretical state where allele and genotype frequencies remain constant across generations in a population.
  • Random Mating
    A condition where all individuals have an equal chance to pair, ensuring stable genotype frequencies.
  • Mutation
    A rare event introducing new alleles, causing minimal changes in large populations' allele frequencies.
  • Natural Selection
    A process where certain alleles are removed due to differential survival or reproduction, altering population genetics.
  • Large Population Size
    A requirement minimizing random fluctuations in allele frequencies, making genetic predictions more accurate.
  • Genetic Drift
    Random changes in allele frequencies, especially significant in small populations, leading to unpredictable genetic outcomes.
  • Gene Flow
    The movement of alleles between populations, which can introduce or remove genetic variants and disrupt equilibrium.
  • Allele Frequency
    The proportion of a specific genetic variant within a population's gene pool.
  • Genotype Frequency
    The proportion of individuals with a particular genetic makeup in a population.
  • Mechanism of Evolution
    A process that alters allele frequencies, including mutation, natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow.
  • Nonrandom Mating
    A scenario where certain genotypes are more likely to pair, affecting genotype but not allele frequencies.
  • Population Genetics
    The study of genetic variation and evolutionary processes within populations.
  • Infinite Population
    A theoretical concept where random sampling error is eliminated, ensuring perfect alignment with expected genetic outcomes.
