Which of the following best defines a gene pool?

Athe sum of all genetic traits in a population’s individuals at a given time
Bany movement of genes from one population to another
Cany movement of organisms from one environment to another
Dthe random change in the frequency of an allele in a population

Verified Answer :

Answer:

The correct answer would be a. the sum of all genetic traits in a population’s individuals at a given time.

A gene pool is defined as a sum total of all the genes present in an inter-breeding population at a specific time.

It includes all the alleles of all the loci within the genes of a interbreeding population or species.

The composition of the gene pool of a population can change with course of a time due to evolution.

A large and diverse gene pool enhances the ability of a population to adapt, survive and evolve in a nature.
