complete notes and an activity in order to understand how Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is established and what assumptions and conditions are necessary to reach Equilibrium.
Warm Up:
- In a population of certain frogs in which the allele for brown skin is dominant to the allele for green skin, a drought leads to selection against green-skinned frogs.
