Which one of the following conditions would allow gene frequencies to change by chance?
A) large population
B) small populations
C) mutation
D) gene flow

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Small populations are more susceptible to changes in gene frequencies by chance, as genetic drift can occur more easily. Larger populations are generally more genetically stable due to the dilution effect. Mutation and gene flow can also alter gene frequencies, but they are not solely dependent on the population size.
