Answer:

(C). gene pool

Explanation:

Gene pool can be defined as the total genetic information in all members of a population. It represents all genes, chromosomes, and combinations of genes (due to different alleles) in organisms of the same species.

The gene pool composition of a articular population can be changed over time by various mechanisms. These mechanisms include mutations, natural selection, and genetic drift.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
