Is selection more effective against recessive alleles in haploid or diploid organisms?

The selection of more effective which is against recessive alleles in haploid organisms than diploid organisms. This is because haploid organisms contain a single set of alleles if a deleterious allele is present in haploid organisms which will produce its effect immediately as there will be no dominant allele which can prevent the expression of the recessive allele as it happens in diploids. Recessive allele will not produce its effect in presence of the dominant allele in the case of heterozygote which is Aa.
Where there is haploid the selection will be more effective when removing recessive alleles in the population. It is the homozygous recessive condition which as aa then the selection will act against recessive alleles.

Describe the process of natural selection
Keith_Richards [23]
Natural selection is the process in which the more favorable traits due to mutation that are in a select few in a population produce more offspring then others. An example of this is bacteria resistant to antibiotics due to the faster reproduction of the resistant bacteria over the non resistant ones
