Which of the following populations is more likely to reach Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? a.large population residing on an isolated island b. small population reproductively isolated, branched off from a larger population c. large population residing in an earthquake–prone city

Respuesta :

letter A. large population residing on an isolated island.

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium describes an idealized state, and genetic variations in nature can be measured as changes from this equilibrium state.
A. large population residing on an isolated island

A huge population residing in an isolated setting would likely cause less genetic drift. Certain factors may less affect the population like immigration and mutation.
