The data table below illustrates the change that occurred in the frequency of phenotypes in an insect population over five years. What is the most probable explanation for this change over time?

Dark Green (GG and Gg) 800 3000
Light Green (gg) 2000 1000

The adaptive value of allele g decreased.
The adaptive value of allele g increased.
The mutation rate of allele g increased.
The mutation rate of allele G increased.

Thank you. do you know much about hardy weinberg? I am having a hard time with a few questions.

In a population of tree frogs, the allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y). If 85% of the frogs have yellow eyes, what is the frequency of the dominant allele?

 0.15
 0.39
 0.52
 0.61

I think it's 61 - .15 squared then - 1 = 61 right?
