Which of the following mechanisms does NOT result in variation in the gene frequencies from the ancestral population?
A)founder effect
B)differential reproduction
C)genetic equilibrium
D)genetic drift
E)natural selection

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Genetic equilibrium describes the absence of evolutionary change in a population, meaning that the gene frequencies remain constant over time. Therefore, it does not result in variation in the gene frequencies from the ancestral population. The other options (A, B, D, and E) all involve changes in gene frequencies from the ancestral population.
