Question

Change in the frequency of genes in small populations is called:

• A. Variation
• B. Mutation
• C. Genetic drift
• D. Evolution
  %Correct answer

Hint:

Genetic drift plays a significant role in small populations, where random events can cause significant allele frequency changes.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Genetic drift refers to the random change in the frequency of alleles in a small population. This can occur due to chance events rather than natural selection. It is a key factor in the evolution of small populations.
