Answer: The correct answer is-

Genetic drift tends to occur in populations that are small.

Genetic drift can be described as an evolutionary mechanism, according to which frequency of gene variant ( that is allele frequency) changes over generation within a population due to some random/ chance events.

It has a pronounced impact on population with small size.

This is because in small population, infrequently-occurring gene variants have a larger probability of getting lost.

As it is initiated,it will continue until the gene variant is either lost or is the only allele left at the gene locus within a population.

This will result in the decrease of the genetic diversity of population.

Compare and contrast point mutations and chromosome mutations and explain the basis for classifying a mutation as beneficial, ne
zepelin [54]
<span>Point mutations are of two types: Substitutions of bases that are the change of one base of DNA by another. And Transitions that are replaced on a pyrrhic basis by another pyrrhic or a pyrimidine by another pyrimidine. Transversions: substitution of a pyrrhic base by another pyrimidine or vice versa. These mutations are negative because they affect only one of the nucleotides, and therefore, only one triplet of bases are affected. When the mutation does not affect the individual it is a silent mutation. Chromosomal mutations Changes in the structure of the diploid chromosomes, where one of the chromosomes has a mutation, will have another normal. They can hinder the process of meiosis in the carrier since it hinders the correct pairing of the homologous chromosomes. It would produce an unfeasible offspring or with mutations.</span>

which would take more force to move over ice:a sled with a rough metal bottom or a sled with a smooth metal bottom? why?
vfiekz [6]
A rough metal bottom because there is more force being needed due to the rough edges moving against the ice instead of a flat, smooth surface which glides.

lawyer [7]

The characteristics show that the given fish is a sturgeon.

Sturgeon is a general name for the twenty-seven fish species belonging to the family Acipenseridae. Their origination dates back to the Triassic, that is, about 245 to 208 mya.  

The sturgeons are late developing, and long-lived fishes with different features like a heterocercal caudal fin identical to that of sharks, and an elongated spindle-like body, which is scaleless, smooth-skinned, and armored with five lateral rows of bony plates known as scutes.
