Hardy-Weinberg Equation

What better way to learn those tough concepts in science than to carry out hands-on, highly visual activities that let you investigate challenging topics in a virtual environment.

Delve into the details of evolution as you study the Hardy-Weinberg equation and learn how it can be used to provide evidence of natural selection acting upon a population. Various interactive exercises help you learn about the two forms of the equation and the conditions necessary for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

• Discover that a recessive phenotype can be more common than a dominant phenotype.
• Learn how to calculate p and q in a population.
• Explore the change in allele frequencies that can happen over time.
• Understand how such factors as gene flow, genetic drift, mutation, and natural selection can lead to evolution.
• Discover how genetic equilibrium is expressed in a population.
