Question
In the DRIFT ONLY simulation, what happened to expected heterozygosities (expected heterozygosity = 2pq) in your 10 runs? After 25 generations, how many simulations increased and how many decreased from the initial exp. heterozygosity in generation 0? Explain.

. The amount of genetic drift increases as the size of the sample used to found the next generation decreases. Another way to restate the population size assumption of Hardy
