A population of 1000 individuals is found to have an almost

equal number of AA, Aa and aa genotypes. What is the most likely

explanation?

The hardy-Weinberg OR Hardy - Weinberg equilibrium is the model that describes that the frequency of genotype and allele frequency remain constant if there is no evolutionary influences, generation to generation.

According to this model:

p + q = 1

p² + q² + 2pq = 1

Thus, the given case does not follow the Hardy Weinberg principle which means there is some type of influence of the evolutionary change is occurred in the particular population.
