### Step-by-Step Solution **(a) Explanation of Hardy-Weinberg's Expression and Genetic Equilibrium:** 1. **Understanding Genetic Equilibrium:** - Genetic equilibrium refers to a state in a population where allele frequencies remain constant over generations. This means that the genetic makeup of the population does not change, indicating stability in the gene pool. 2. **Hardy-Weinberg Principle:** ...
