|
Genetic drift is most likely to impact a population ____
|
|
That has a low mutation rate
|
|
|
In which natural selection is occurring
|
|
|
That is very small
|
|
|
For which environmental conditions are changing
|
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.
