Answer:
In the exceptionally cold winter of 1997, Lake Superior froze over between the Wisconsin mainland and Isle Royale. A pack of 8 wolves crossed the ice and reached Isle Royale, an island where they encountered a population of about a dozen wolves. It is estimated that the wolf population on Isle Royale has been isolated for over 100 years (~10 generations). The pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice would be referred to as <u>founder population</u> and if the wolves interbreed with the island population, <u>genetic drift</u> will occur.
Explanation:
The founder effect occurs when a portion of a population (i-e the founders) separates from the old population to start a new population with different allele frequencies. Hence the pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice would be referred to as <u>founder population</u> in the given scenario.
Genetic drift is defined as change in the allele frequencies in a population due to chance event. As in the given scenario, the pack of 8 wolves that crossed the ice, interbreed with the island population, thus change in the allelle frequency is occuring in the population , hence <u>genetic drift</u> will occur.

Hope this helps!
The natural resources can be affected by mining. The natural nutrients that the soil can give to plants can be affected. This would get more space instead of farm lands. It can also affect the living of people in the area. Resources that would come from plants and animals would be disturbed by this activity and can ruin natural habitat.
