Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way through which nonrandom mating and gene flow result in evolutionary change.

Concept Introduction:

Evolution is descent with modification. This means, the inherited trait changes from one generation to another. Evolution is a modification or change in an allele frequency which is analyzed as the number of copies of that gene and the division of the entire number of alleles in the population. Allele frequencies change for the constitution of evolution.
