Consider the given statements regarding Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and the conditions affecting it:
I It states that, provided some pre-conditions are met with, allele frequencies in a population are stable and constant from generation to generation.
II Change of frequency of alleles in a population is interpreted as resulting in evolution.
III If the change in frequency of alleles in a population occurs by chance, it is called genetic drift.
IV In a population at genetic equilibrium if the frequency of recessive allele is 0.3 then about 42% of the population will be heterozygous for the trait.
V Natural selection can lead to disruption when more individuals acquire value other than the mean character value.

The number of correct statements is:

2.    3
