Answer: option A - Constant in genotype and phenotype

Explanation:

Pan mixia is a situation in which an individual is just as likely to mate with another randomly chosen individual as any other in the population

In a situation as described in the question, sexual reproduction is limited to organisms of the same habitat, thus the genetic variation is reduced to the BAREST MINIMUM.

This results in Constancy in genotype and phenotype
