Solution

The correct answer is: there must be no migration into or out of the population.

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is a principle stating that the genetic variation in a population will remain constant from one generation to the next in the absence of disturbing factors. These factors include genetic mutations, non-random mating, gene flow (migration into or out of the population), genetic drift, and natural selection. Therefore, for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, there must be no migration into or out of the population.
