Want to know:
Imagine an island archipelago where all of the islands are founded by individuals heterozygous at a particular locus. If there is no migration or mutation, and the alleles at that locus are neutral, what do you expect the island populations to look like after many generations?Select one:a. The populations on every island will have fixed the same alleleb. Some island populations will have fixed one allele, and other populations will have fixed the other allelec. The island populations will have high levels of genetic diversity at this locus.d. We cannot predict any outcome because genetic drift is a random process
