The tendency of population to remain in genetic equilibrium may be disturbed by
random mating
lack of migration
lack of mutations
lack of mutations
D.
lack of mutations
According to Hardy-Weirberg principle, allele frequencies in a population are stable and is constant from generation to generation allele frequencies in a population will remain constant over generations only if the following condition are met
i) There is no mutation no gene flow and all mating is random
ii) All genotypes reproduce equally well (i.e., no natural selection,)But their conditions rarely met in nature.

The process by which organisms with different evolutionary history evolve similar to a common environmental challenge is called
natural selection
convergent evolution
non-random evolution
non-random evolution
