Question

Info you need to answer question: You are studying the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase in a population of Drosophila. The allele frequency of the fast allele is 0.3 and the allele frequency of the slow allele is 0.7. Assume the population is in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium.

Question 4 2 points Save Answer A large sa lefies from the population n quesion 2 is moved o a new habitat. There are no flies existing here. of the fast allele increases from 0.3 to 0.6. What evolutionary force is responsible for this result? There ls a lot more fermentng fruit and thus a o n this en ronment compared to the o igral environment. Over 10 generations the frequency evolutionary force is responsible for Mutation Migration Genetic drift Natural selection

Explanation / Answer

The most plausible answer seems to be "Natural Selection"

EXPLANATION

It seems natural selection favoured the organisims with fast allele thus increasing allele

frequency over generations for better adaptibility ...

Hope it helps ... Regards
