A biologist measures the allele frequencies of pea plants in a very controlled
environment. The plants can either have a dominant tall allele (7) or a
recessive short allele (t). Which of the following would be a reason that this
population is not at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
O
A. Tall plants are more likely to survive.
O
B. The pea flowers are pollinated at random.
O
C. There are no mutations in the alleles for height.
O
D. All of the pea plants reproduce exactly once.
