The figure above depicts the change in p over time when the forward mutation rate is twice the reverse muta-tion rate

This results in a p equilibrium frequency that approaches 0.333. If the forward mutation rate was four times as fast as the reverse mutation rate, one would expect the equilibrium value of p to be: a. stable b. unstable c. lower than 0.33 d. higher than 0.33 e. A and C
