This is an example of founder effect and genetic drift. The right answer is A and C only

Explanation:

Genetic drift is a mechanism in the process of evolution in which the sampling error ( change in allele frequencies  of population occur).

Here Genetic drift will lead to founder effect as colonization of species has taken place.

When a small population forms colones and does not contain the genetic diversity present in parental population. The  movement from larger population to smaller population and having different gene frequencies is called Founder effect. The change in the alleles would lead to generation of same alleles and hence they will experience drift over a large period of time.

The cytochrome c in both horses and pigeons differs from the human protein at 12 locations. Based on this data, you might infer
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Cytochrome c is an enzyme found in bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. Here it is given that the human amino acid sequence for cytochrome c differs at 12 locations from the sequence in horses and pigeons. This information might be useful for inferring in preliminary stages that horses and pigeons are closely related to each other since they both show similar amount of difference from humans.

However, this hypothesis is being made with respect to the the comparison between "humans and horses" and "humans and pigeons". To further test this hypothesis pigeons and horses should be directly compared to each other without the use of a third species like humans. Hence, the sequence for cytochrome c in horse and pigeon should be compared with each other rather than comparing to humans.
