In this case, "P" is representing homozygosity "Q" is representing genetic variation. Therefore the individuals are further decreasing genetic variation by increasing homozygosity in the genomes of their offspring. Mutation is a weak force for changing allele frequencies but is a strong force for introducing new alleles therefore it is the ultimate source of new alleles in plant pathogen populations. Nonrandom mating - Frequency of plants with pink flowers will be much less than 2pq Nonrandom mating<span> occurs when the probability that two individuals in a population will mate is not the same for all possible pairs of individuals. </span> Natural selection - p and q will stay the same
The interactions between individuals and their environment are what determines whether their genetic information will be passed on or not. The sum of the allele frequencies for all the alleles at the locus must be 1, so p + q = 1.
Small population size - Changes in p and q cannot be predicted
Small populations tend to lose genetic diversity more quickly than large populations due to stochastic sampling error
Gene flow - p will decrease and q will increase
Migrants result change the distribution of genetic<span> diversity within the populations, by modifying the allele frequencies. </span>
The wavelength of the wave is 160 m, and this is the distance between two consecutive crests. The boat is located at a crest of the wave, this means that the first trough is located 80 meters from the boat (because the distance between a crest and a trough is half the wavelength).
The speed of the wave is so the time the boat takes to reach the first trough is
