Help please How does random mating keep a
population in Hardy-Weinberg
Equilibrium?
A. Choosing a random mate creates variation which helps
the population evolve.
B. Individuals choose their mates causing only certain
traits to be passed on.
C. Mates aren't chosen based on traits so all alleles are
equally likely to be passed on.
D. When all the females of a population randomly choose a
mate and only certain alleles get passed on.

C

Explanation:

A: Choosing a random mate does create variation and help the population evolve, but the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is talking about how allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation

B: With selective mating only certain traits will get passed on, destroying the equilibrium. However, this doesn't answer the question

C: Yes. This is the essense of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium

D:  This is wrong and illogical.
