So what roles do society, politics, and economics play in science?Economics determines how much money is available to fund scientific research. Certain federal grants come directly out of the national economy, which determines if certain research projects can continue or are cut off.Politics affect science by passing some bills that directly affects science, congressmen can determine whether those funds from the economy will be used for research or not. Just a side note: wealthy lobbyists control alot of what politicians do, by donating millions into their election campaigns. Society affects science by our citizens democratically electing those politicians that we think will or will not endorse scientific research projects. For example, embryonic stem cell research has been under fire by conservatives for taking future babies' cells to study. Liberals, however, tend to be in favor of change and new advances scientifically

if you need it shorter "Society, made up of the country's citizens, can influence science by electing politicians (president and congressmen); the politicians can then affect the economic funding of scientific research, either by increasing or decreasing government grants to scientific projects."
Answer:
B. p will neither increase nor decrease; it will remain more or less constant under the conditions described
Explanation:
When a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it is not evolving and allele frequencies are not going to change across generations. Conditions for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are :
- Infinite population size
- Random mating
- No selection
- No mutation
- No gene flow
Since the moth population in question shows above mentioned characteristics, it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Frequency of none of the alleles are going to change.
Hence, p will neither increase nor decrease; it will remain more or less constant under the conditions described.
