Each of two isolated populations is in Hardy€“Weinberg equilibrium with the genotype frequencies shown below:

(a) If the populations are equal in size and they merge to form a single large population, predict the allele and genotype frequencies in the large population immediately after merger.

(b) If the merged population reproduces by random mating, predict the genotype frequencies in the next generation.
(c) If the merged population continues to reproduce by random mating, will these genotype frequencies remain constant?
