Imagine that individuals with a certain allele (B) have much greater reproductive success than those without the allele. However, individuals with the B allele also have shorter life spans than those without the allele. How would you predict the allele frequencies in the population will change through subsequent generations

    Allelic frequency

    Explanation:

    The B allele will become more common only if the individuals reach reproductive ages

    Since the individuals with allele B have much greater reproductive success therefore once they reach the reproductive age, success to reproduce new individuals will be higher

    The offsprings will carry on the allele (B allele) and pass on to the next generation

    Even if the parental individuals die because of shorter life span the offsprings produced in each generation will pass on the allele to their subsequent generation
