Explanation / Answer

19. This has no effect on the gene pool

20. This mutation does not affect the human gene pool because it will not be passed on to offspring

22. A chance event such as a hurricane occurred that caused a population to lose many individual. As a result the population lost alleles because of genetic drift

23. Human population has higher than normal percentage of individuals with a rare genetic disease. The most likely explaination is

24. He read Malthus essays on population did not occur to Darwin on the voyage of the beagle

25. genetic variation necessary for natural selection can be caused by the recombination during meiosis

26. one necessary element of biological species concept is reproductive isolation.

27. individuals organisms in a population All of the above are true

28. Bottleneck

29. Founder effect
