Genetic drift is a change in allele frequencies caused by random events.Therefore in this case the correct answer is the change in allele frequencies caused by random events. Genetic drift is one of the basic mechanism of evolution along with natural selection, mutation and migration. In each generation, several individuals may randomly leave behind a few more descendants than other individuals. Genetic drift occurs when the occurrence of variant forms of a gene (allele) increases or decreases by chance over time.

An alleles is dominant is heterozygote when it is
Fittoniya [83]

An allele is dominant and heterzygote (Pp) when a dominant allele (P) is crossed with a recessive allele (p).

Explanation:

A dominant allele is the one with a particular dominant character or phenotype which dominates even though there are other alleles found.  

A heterozygous allele results from two different alleles coding for a gene.

A heterozygous dominant allele (Pp) results from the crossing of a dominant allele (P) with a recessive allele due to complete masking of the recessive allele (p).

For example, when dominant brown eyes are crossed with recessive blue eyes, in a heterozygous dominant allele results in brown eyes and masks the recessive blue eyes.
