If mating is random, population is large and mutation does not occur, then gene frequencies of population from generation to generation remain constant. This was put forwarded by

A

Lederberg

B

Wallace

C

Hardy Weinberg

D

Haeckel

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
According to hardy Weinberg law allele and genetic frequency remain constant generation after generation if individual in a population is infinitely large, randomly mating, no migration, no mutation and no natural selection.
