Without selection, allele frequencies stay put and genotypes settle at p², 2pq, q² — Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Give the genotypes different fitness and selection shifts the allele frequency each generation. Heterozygote advantage (high Aa fitness) can hold both alleles in a stable balance.

Governing equation

p^{2} + 2 pq + q^{2} = 0.25 + 0.50 + 0.25 = 1 (p = 0.5, q = 0.50)

Reading this result: Allele A is favored at every genotype, so directional selection drives p toward 1 and eventually fixes A.
