Hi guys! I will give BRAINLIEST to the person who can answer this question confidently! (this is for honors bio btw) I think it is 'a.' because the allele frequencies are identical but I am not 100% sure

Question: A small group of deer is forced to leave the herd in search of a new habitat with more food. If the allele frequencies of the small group is identical to that of the large population, which of the following statements apply?

a. Genetic drift has not occurred
b. The bottleneck effect has happened.
c. The two groups will become different species
d. The genetic variation of each group will be altered.

Respuesta :

I believe you are correct in assuming it is a, I had the same question and I put down A as well.

Also, Genetic drift is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population due to random sampling of organisms. The alleles in the offspring are a sample of those in the parents, and chance has a role in determining whether a given individual survives and reproduces.
