Natural bridges connecting islands would NOT be a barrier to gene flow

Gene flow is the transfer of genetic variation between different populations. Mobility plays an important role in gene flow   between different populations. Natural bridges connecting islands would not be a barrier to gene flow because with natural bridges, there would be movement of organisms. Impassable mountain ranges, big deserts, oceans or man- made barriers are examples of barriers to gene flow.

The answer is D) Natural bridges connecting islands

Explanation:

All of these would keep different populations from coming together except natural bridges connecting islands. The bridge would allow the immigration and emigration of individuals.
