... Random mating must occur (i.e. individuals must pair by chance). The population must be large so that no genetic drift (random chance) can cause the allele frequencies to change. 5. No selection can occur so that certain alleles are not selected for, or against. Obviously, the Hardy-Weinberg equilib ...
