Which of the following is most likely an example of genetic drift resulting from the founder effect? a. The species’ physical habitat is limited. b. The population expresses a mix of dominant and recessive traits. c. The species occupies a small, specific niche. d. A population commonly expresses traits that are otherwise rare in the species.
An example of genetic drift resulting from the founder effect, of the available answers listed below, would most likely be a situation in which a population commonly expresses traits that are otherwise rare in the species. An example of this might be an animal with longer limbs than other members of the same species - there have been real-life examples of this studied with lizards.
