Answer:

C. There is no genetic drift

Explanation:

A population is said to be in genetic equilibrium when the genetic variation of a population remains constant over many generations.

For a population to remain in genetic equilibrium it is necessary that external factors that disturb the equilibrium should not be present.

The external factors that are responsible for disturbing the genetic equilibrium are mutations, non-random mating, genetic drift and gene flow.

Genetic drift occurs when due to a chance event the allele frequency of a population either increases or decreases and this is usually common in small populations.

Thus, genetic drift should not occur so that the population can be in genetic equilibrium.

What would be the advantage(s) to having no chloroplasts in the cells of the spongy mesophyll?
Gwar [14]
Well, first off the spongy mesophyll does have some chloroplasts, however they are located quite far from the surface of the leaf where most of the chloroplasts are. Therefore they don't get much light and don't contribute a lot to photosynthesis in the leaf. So why should the leaf waste the energy in making chloroplasts if there is not enough light to make them all efficient enough at photosynthesis?
