Answer: The correct answer is- to see what new traits might appear next.

As per the information in the question, pigeon breeder selects the offspring of pigeons with spotted bodies.

Spotted body is a trait that would be depicted by two different alleles ( such as one for black and other for white color).

As both the alleles for the color are represented in the pigeon offspring, therefore, it is a case of co-dominance ( let us take its genotype as Bb, where 'B' is allele for black and 'b' for white color).

When pigeons with spotted bodies are cross bred, they can produce pigeon with spotted and non spotted ( such as black 'BB', white 'bb', or spotted 'Bb' ) body depending upon the allele that is passed to the offspring.

Thus,  pigeon breeder selects the spotted bodies pigeons and then breed those offspring to see what new traits might appear next.

It's to produce offspring with spotted bodies.  That's the simplest result for this grade level and the most obvious.  In college, you're taught to ask for more details, or look at the whole picture.  But I guess the answer they are looking for is D.

What could be the possible result of founder effect on genetic variation?
GaryK [48]
The possible result of the founder effect would be loss of genetic variation. The reason why this is so is because by definition, the founder effect is often considered to be the cause for a essened genetic variation in a specie or a certain area where organisms thrive.
