Principal of Segregation
Alleles are segregated, separated, from one another during meiosis
-
-
During meiosis, 2 members of a gene pair separate from each other

Life History
life history
To predict if a population will grow or shrink, ecologists need to know birth and death rates for organisms at different ages as well as the current age and sex makeup of the population.
-
Population age structure—Are there lots of: young individuals? Old individuals? Reproductive age individuals?; and similar questions
Population growth rate—How fast is the population size growing (or shrinking)? Population survivorship patterns—Does most mortality occur in the very young? The very old? Or equally across all ages?

Pop Genetics
Hardy Weinberg Equation
Gene pool
-
A population is a group of individuals of the same species that occupy the same region and can interbreed with each other

-
Hardy Weinberg equation
predicts an equilibrium-unchanging allele and genotype frequencies from generation to generation-if certain conditions exist in a population
