A) sum of all genes in that population.

B) relative proportion of a given allele in that population.

D) number of all alleles in that population.

Genetic Drift is the change in the gene frequency of a population over time. The Genetic Drift only has an effect on very small populations.

What is Genetic Drift?

  • It can be defined as the change in the gene frequency of a population over time by chance.
  • Genetic Drift affects populations of all sizes but the effect is large for the small population.
  • It plays a major role when the size of the population is reduced by a disaster or a small population splits up from the founding population.

Therefore, the Genetic Drift only has an effect on very small populations.
