The correct Answer is:
B
Hard Weinberg principle gives the geneticist a tool to determine when evolution is occurring.
They use this principle to calculate a starting point allele frequency and then compare it to frequencies measured at some future time. The amount of deviation between observed frequencies and those predicted by Hardy Weinberg indicate the degree of evolutionary change.
