Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a gene, it is not evolving, and allele frequencies will stay the same across generations. There are five basic Hardy-Weinberg assumptions: no mutation, random mating, no gene flow, infinite population size, and no selection.
Detailed explanation-2: -At Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, gene flow must not occur in the population. Gene flow, or gene migration occurs when allele frequencies in a population change as organisms migrate into or out of the population.
