Consider a gene with two alleles C and M The table below describes fitness for different genotypes in two populations Population 1 Population 2 Fitness CC 1 0 0 9 CM 1 0 0 9 Assume that both populations begin with frequencies of 0 5 for each allele population size is infinite and there is no migration between populations O Frequency of M will increase Frequency of M will decrease Frequency of M will stay the same Frequency of M will change randomly MM 0 6 1 0 Based on the table how would you expect the frequency of M to change over time in population 1 k
