Answer: False.

Genetic drift is a stochastic process that occurs randomly through time. It refers to random fluctuations in allele frequencies due to chance events (small population size).

Explanation: Factors that can affect genetic diversity are Genetic drift, mutation, selection, migration, non-random mating and recombination.

Of these factors, forces that majorly control the fate of genetic variation in populations are genetic drift and natural selection.

Genetic drift refers to random fluctuations in allele frequencies due to chance events (small population size).

Natural selection involves environmental conditions acting on wild plant or animal populations or species. Most fit in a selection refers to genotype or phenotype with greater average reproductive output over it's lifespan than other genotypes or phenotypes.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The energy is mostly released as heat through the dog's activities; the nutrients either become part of the dog's body or are released to the ecosystem as wastes like urine, feces, and exhaled gases.

Explanation:

  • The food that is consumed by an organism is digested and the nutrients obtained from the food are partly absorbed by the digestive system and assimilated and stored into the body and the nutrients that are not absorbed are released in the form of feces.
  • The chemical energy obtained from the food is released in the form of heat through the activities that are done by the dog.
