C. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium will effectively stop once some individuals produce more offspring than others. Note that this is a principle that involves genotype frequencies in a certain population, and genotype frequencies come from producing genetics; not immigration, choosing mates and survival.

Answer:

C. Some individuals produce more offspring than others.

Explanation:

Random mating between organisms, absence of any factor of evolution (mutation, recombination, gene flow, migration etc.) and absence of any survival advantage of specific alleles serve to maintain the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium over generations. However, reproductive fitness, that is, ability of some organisms to produce more offspring than others would increase their number of population over generations. This would lead to increased frequency of their alleles in the gene pool and deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Explain how individual and public health are affected by environmental and genetic factors.
irga5000 [103]
Individual and public health are affected by environmental and genetic factors is a statement which reflects reality. Firstly, susceptibility to certain diseases usually or often runs in a family so that if there is say, diabetes in the father and grandmother for example, the son or daughter has more chances of getting it so this is a genetic susceptibility.. Also, some families are more prone to cancer so that given the right circumstances, cancer can develop. So it is usually a combination of both genetic and environmental causes that results in a disease. An example of public health could be when smallpox was deliberately introduced to the First Nations people in British Columbia, Canada back in the 1800's to decimate them and remove their resistance to the gold mining hordes. Since the First Nations had no anti-bodies to counteract such a disease unlike the white men who introduced it to them, then they easily fell prey to it and died within days of contracting it.
