Answer:

b. Gene flow

Explanation:

Gene flow also know as gene migration is the migration or movement of genetic material from one population to another. When a particular gene is introduced from one population to another it causes a genetic variation in the receiving population, hence altering the allele frequencies of the population.

In other words, when the allele frequency between the resident population and migrating population is greater and the migrating population is larger in number than the resident population, the effect on the composition of gene pool of the receiving population will be greater.

Take for instance, the lion that is thrown out of its group would migrate to another group, reproduce and produce cubs with a portion of their own genetic material.

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Due to toxicity of chemicals.

Explanation:

Carlos decided to not want try to plant in the soil having high chemical levels because high decomposition increases chemical levels to a limit which can damage the plant. If there is high level of chemicals than normal in the soil, so it can burn the roots of the plants and the plant will not be able to absorb nutrients that leads to the death of plant so the decision of Carlos is right to not grow plant in such type of soil having high chemical levels.
