In a species of wild animal, claw size is determined by a combination of two allele. Allele Q codes for large claws, while allele q codes for small claws. Individuals with a heterozygous genotype possess claws of medium size. Members of the species depend on their claws to be able to burrow in the ground and find food. The ground in their area has always been soft, but gradual climate change has caused the dirt to become hard and compact. Which statement best predicts the change that will occur in the affected populations?

Question 1 options:

Allele Q will become dominant to allele q.

Allele q will decrease in frequency.

Allele q will become dominant to allele Q.
