Which statement correctly connects the genetic drift and gene pools? a. Genetic drift is a process in which the gene pool of a population changes due to chance.
b. The gene pool is a group of individuals that prevents genetic drift due to random events.
c. The gene pool causes a shift in a population, which is known as genetic drift.
d. Genetic drift changed a gene pool by randomly changing the size of a population.

Aspecies has evolved an asexual mode of reproduction by having offspring develop from unfertilized eggs. which of the following will be true of this species' response to natural selection? there will be more deaths from natural selection because there is no mutation. there will be less genetic variation from recombination and a risk of not adapting quickly to environmental change. the species will increase in numbers because genetic variation is increased. the species will compensate for loss of genetic variation by hybridizing with other species. there will be fewer deaths from natural selection because sexual recombination always leads to extinction.
