Question continuation;
..........type B. Type A is found to be more common in the mainland population from which the island was settled.
How could a geneticist best explain the dominance of blood type B in the island population?
Multiple choices;
A. Random mutations have occurred in the island population.
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
C. Natural selection has only occurred in the mainland population.
D. Environmental conditions on the island are less favorable for type B individuals.
Answer;
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
Explanation;
-Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution in which allele frequencies of a population change over generations due to chance.
-It occurs in all populations of non-infinite size, but its effects are strongest in small populations.
