Which of the following would cause allele frequencies in a population to evolve? I believe it's the population size compared to the other options. Here's the other options just in case: The population became isolated from other populations. The population no longer has genetic mutations. The population now lacks any sexual selection. The population size is now not large enough.
Thanks for posting your hunch as well, but I'd go with population isolation. The population size doesn't have any effect on the allele frequency, but isolating a some members of a population (essentially separating the group into two groups) will result in genetic differences between them accumulating over time. Cheers,
I wasn't sure since the question was based off of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
