Would a topographic map of a mountain today have the same appearance in the future?

Changes in maps of any kind are possible in the future. The probability of a change in a topographic map representation of a mountain in the future increases the further into the future we intend to predict.

Topographic maps are useful to obtain a general overview of the land in a certain area. Among the many things that these maps show the user are:

Hills
Ridges
Valleys
Lakes
Rivers
Creeks
Trails
Roads
Elevation of the ground.

These contents can change based on natural occurrences. In the case of a mountain, natural disasters such as an <em>earthquake</em> or <em>volcanic eruption </em>can drastically change the topography of said mountain. The movement of tectonic plates is also a prime example of how the appearance of a mountain may change in the future.

Answer:

A) Remaining populations will have reduced genetic diversity

Explanation:

A random mating population allows for genetic diversity as each individual have equal chance of been mated to and it allows for perpetuation of frequently occurring genes.

For a small population the frequency of allele is mostly fix with virtually all loci having the same genotype because mating is within small individual and genes whose frequency is few will be drifted out of the population.

Hence, after the eruption due to a small random population diversity will be reduced as diversity occur more in a large random mating population.
