Biology: Allele frequency

Allele frequencies in populations and how they differ from genotype frequencies.

Biology

Life is beautiful! From atoms to cells, from genes to proteins, from populations to ecosystems, biology is the study of the fascinating and intricate systems that make life possible. Dive in to learn more about the many branches of biology and why they are exciting and important. Covers topics seen in a high school or first-year college biology course.

Heredity and genetics

At its core, evolution is a change in the allele frequencies in a population over time. But how does this change happen, and how can it be measured? Here, we'll address these questions at both the conceptual and mathematical levels.
