Production and redistribution of variationii. Natural Selection II. Definition of Evolutiona. Evolution is a change in allele frequency form one generation to the nextThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.i. Macroevolutionii. Microevolution b. Population= a group of interbreeding individuals (no matter the species)III. Hardy-Weinberg Equilibriuma. Formula determines whether allele frequencies in a human population are changingb. Factors that initiate changes in allele frequencies includes those that:i. Mutation- the one way a completely new genetic variation is introduced to a population. A biochemical change in DNA. 1/10,000ii. Gene Flow- two populations previously separate, and they begin to interbreed i.e. Brunettes and blondes Not random. iii. Genetic Drift- Random the way which offspring are produced, leads to a higher frequencyiv. Natural Selection- “Natural selection is not the composer of evolution. It is the editor.”c. Polymorphism i. Common trait within a populationii. Too common to be the result of mutationiii. Demands evolutionary
