∙ 10y agoGene mutation causes the phenotype frequency in a population to change after each generation.
A population in which the allele frequencies do not change from one generation to the next is said to be in equilibrium.
The frequency of the populations alleles. Their gene frequency must change to have evolution.

The phenotype frequency does not change
For a characteristic to affect evolution, it must be heritable, meaning it can be passed down from one generation to the next. Additionally, the characteristic must influence the survival and reproductive success of individuals in a population. These two factors are essential for natural selection to operate and lead to evolutionary change.
No, a parameter is a fixed value that describes a characteristic of a population. It does not change for a set population. Parameters are typically determined by conducting a study or analysis of the population.
Generation-to-generation change in allele frequencies in a population is known as evolution. This change can be the result of various factors such as natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutation. Over time, these processes can lead to the emergence of new traits and variations within the population.
known as genetic drift. It is a random process that can lead to the loss or fixation of certain alleles in a population over time due to chance events. It is particularly important in small populations where random fluctuations can have a greater impact.
