There are five conditions which must be met for the Hardy
... Equilibrium. They are; no mutations, random mating, no natural selection, extremely large population size, and no gene flow. The first condition, no mutations, is saying that there needs to be no changes in even one piece of gene from the population. Next, random mating, means that no organism choos ...
