Question
5.Consider the population of Ontario in 1867 (1.5 million) and the population today (13 million). What factors do you think have contributed to a longer lifespan for individuals within this population? What factors have contributed to changes in family sizes? Do you think the lifespan of the average adult is expected to increase for the next few generations? Explain your answers

The new population will be less genetically diverse than the original one since there are fewer alleles available. The populations would experience the same effects because all the bison that had been reproducing before the 12 bison left. Natural selection will affect the new population differently than it affects the original population. The new population will have less genetic drift than the original population because there are fewer genes. O O Question # 2 Multiple Select Suppose a population of 150 bison is wandering and grazing in an area where there is an old bridge across a river leading to a new field. After 12 bison make it across, the bridge collapses. Assuming equal numbers of males and females, what will most…arrow_forward21) Population Size: 200 Generation: 20 17.
