|
|
all of the genes that are present in all populations
|
|
|
all of the genes, including all the different alleles, that are present in all populations

Detailed explanation-1: -Populations are made up of members of the same species that interbreed. Population geneticists study the variation that naturally occurs among the genes within a population. The collection of all the genes and the various alternate or allelic forms of those genes within a population is called its gene pool.
Detailed explanation-2: -A gene pool refers to the combination of all the genes (including alleles) present in a reproducing population or species.
Detailed explanation-3: -The gene pool is the sum of all the alleles at all genes in a population.
Detailed explanation-4: -A population’s gene pool consists of all the genes of all the members of the population. For a given gene, the population is characterized by the frequency of different alleles in the gene pool.
Detailed explanation-5: -So the correct option is ‘the entire genome of a reproducing individual.
