The correct answer is a founder effect.  

In population genetics, the founder effect refers to the loss of genetic variation that takes place when a new population is developed by a very small amount of individuals from a bigger population.  

As a consequence of the loss of genetic modification, the new population may be characteristically different, both phenotypically and genotypically, from the parent population from which it is obtained. In extreme situations, the founder effect is considered to result in subsequent evolution and speciation of new species.

The options were not well-ordered, it should be options A to E.

Answer: The correct answer is that the pancreas releases insulin.

Explanation:

Whenever the blood glucose level is high, the pancreas responds by releases insulin, a hormone secreted by its beta cells, and responsible for the regulation of blood sugar level by

- signalling cells of the muscle and liver to store excess blood glucose as GLYCOGEN until energy need arises.

Unlike insulin, when blood glucose levels is low, Glucagon is released also by pancreas to stimulates glycogen breakdown to raise glucose levels
