Answer:
C) genetic drift.
Explanation:
Genetic drift is the random change in the frequency of alleles in a population due to random sampling. Many circumstances can lead to genetic drift for example bottleneck effect, founder effect, etc.
The bottleneck effect occurs when most of the members of a population die because of any natural disaster like flood, fire, etc. This can cause a certain allele to be lost in the remaining population because of losing major populations. So here due to hurricane half of the mammal population gets eliminated which shows it is an example of the genetic drift.
Answer:
B) ecological succession
Explanation:
The analogy given in this question describes ECOLOGICAL SUCCESSION, which is the series of changes that an ecosystem undergoes over a period of time. Ecological succession is of two types viz: Primary succession and Secondary succession.
Primary succession involves the series of changes that occurs on a new habitat that has never been previously colonized. This is the case of the colonization of bare rocks with no plant life by LICHENS. The action of the lichen, which involves secretion of acids that disintegrates the rocks into soil, paves way for the colonization of that area by new species.
Lichens, via the role they play in primary succession by helping alter a barren area into a fertile one that accommodates other organisms, makes them be regarded as PIONEERS of primary succession.
