large populations
|
|
|
all populations equally

large and small populations the same
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Small populations tend to lose genetic diversity more quickly than large populations due to stochastic sampling error (i.e., genetic drift). This is because some versions of a gene can be lost due to random chance, and this is more likely to occur when populations are small.
