Goldfish Evolution • When allele frequencies remain constant, this is called genetic equilibrium, and the population will not evolve.

Goldfish Evolution • Select 10 fish and place on your paper towel. • The remaining goldfish in the bowl will serve as the “extras” to retrieve new fish as a result of reproduction.
