Give one example of how allele frequencies change from one generation to the next due to mutation, migration, genetic drift, nonrandom mating, and selection.
Added by Christina J.
Step 1
The frequency of this allele increases in the population over time as more rabbits with longer ears survive and reproduce. Migration: A group of rabbits with a different allele frequency for ear length migrates into the population. The new allele frequency of the Show more…
