I need help with a biology question:
Sometimes a restriction in genetic variability is imposed on populations by natural catastrophes such as flooding, earthquake, etc. The surviving individuals reflect only a small, random genetic sample of the population affected. This process is termed
sudden mutation
the founder effect
non random mating
gene flow

- Genetic drift in a population affects the gene pool in which of the following ways? decrease in genetic variation increase in genetic variation increased in mutations decreased in gene flowarrow_forwardI need help with a biology question, thanks The gene pool includes____________ Group of answer choices below: all of the fitness within a population. all of the individuals within a population. all of the mutations within a population. all of the alleles of genes within a population.arrow_forwardPlease help me with this questionarrow_forward
- The color of a dragonfly body is determined by a single gene. Two dragonflies homozygous for blue coloration (meaning they have two copies of the blue allele) produce a single offspring with brown coloration. Brown color appeared in this offspring as a result of Gene flow Bottleneck effect Genetic drift Mutationarrow_forwardPlease help with Evolution Bio problem please quick! A flock of 300 Red Legged Jabberwockys gets blown off course during a storm and ends up taking refuge on an island several hundred miles offshore. All 300 members of the Jabberwocky flock have the genotype BB1 for the B locus. On the island where this lost flock lands, the resident population of Red Legged Jabberwockys consists of 700 individuals, all of which have genotype B2B2 for the B locus. Given this information, calculate the observed allele frequencies of the combined population on the island, and the expected genotype frequencies of the next generation. Observed allele frequencies of current generation: (express answers in 1 significant digit: 0.0) p = B1 = q = B2 = Expected genotype frequencies of the next generation: (express answers in 2 significant digits: 0.00) B1B1 = B1B2 = B2B2 = Has migration increased or decreased genetic variation in the island population? Assuming natural selection favors the Be allele in the…arrow_forwardPosted a picture of my questionarrow_forward

In most species cooler temperatures produce females while warmer temperatures produce males.
