The study of evolution from a genetic point of view
A
population genetics
B
microevolution
C
gene pool
D
allele frequency
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -the study of evolution from a genetic point of view. : based on a set of assumptions about an ideal hypothetical population that is not evolving. separation of species or populations so that they cannot interbreed and produce fertile offspring. The idea that a species origionate through gradual change of adaptations.

Detailed explanation-2: -Evolutionary biology is the subfield of biology that studies the evolutionary processes (natural selection, common descent, speciation) that produced the diversity of life on Earth.

Detailed explanation-3: -Population genetics is the study of variation within populations of individuals, and the forces which shape it. This involves studying changes in the frequencies of genetic variation in populations over space and time.

Detailed explanation-4: -By devising models of gene frequency change, population geneticists are thus able to shed light on the genetic basis of evolutionary change, and to permit the consequences of different evolutionary hypotheses to be explored in a quantitatively precise way.

Detailed explanation-5: -Evolution is defined as a change in the genetic composition of a population over successive generations.
