emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

the dominant alleles of white-tailed deer in this population only!

Explanation:A group of individuals of the same species that interbreed with each other is known as a population. The study of change in genetics is called population genetics which includes genes and alleles.  

Complete set of genes and their alleles that are present in a population is called gene pool. Gene pool includes both dominant and recessive alleles of every gene present in a population that can be transmitted in the next generation.

Population with high genetic pool has high diversity which increases the fitness of a population. As gene pool include all the genes and its allele in a population, therefore, the correct answer is all alleles of the white-tailed deer in this population only.

Given that our model finch population is capable of rapid evolution in response to a changing environment, explain why you think
SIZIF [17.4K]

Darwin's finches are a traditional illustration of an adaptive radiation. Their ancestor came on the Galapagos Island about two million years ago. With time Darwin's finches have developed into fifteen different species separated on the basis of beak shape, body size, and feeding and song behavior.  

The population of finches possesses the tendency of evolving rapidly in response to a changing environment. However, they can also get extinct in condition if the weather fluctuates too briskly between the dry and wet seasons. This would most likely take place due to the immigration of genes and mutations within the genes that are conducted on to the next generations.
