Question
- how does nonrandom mating affect the gene pool?
biologically successful individuals genes dominate the gene pool
the dominant genes in a population become more abundant
the population becomes stable or in equilibrium
biologically unsuccessful individuals genes dominate the gene pool
In non - random mating, individuals with certain traits (often associated with biological success like better survival or reproductive ability) are more likely to mate. This leads to their genes being passed on more frequently. Dominant genes may or may not be related to biological success. Population equilibrium is disrupted by non - random mating. Biologically unsuccessful individuals' genes do not dominate as they are less likely to be passed on.
