What counteracting force prevents elimination of variability from a population due to random genetic drift? Group of answer choices mutation heterozygosity homozygosity natural selection none of these
Added by Jacob T.
Step 1
Random genetic drift causes allele frequencies in a population to change randomly over time, often leading to the loss of genetic variability as some alleles become fixed and others are lost. Show more…

Which of these can counteract inbreeding depression? - Genetic drift - Migration - Natural selection -None of the above
Adi S.
Migration of random individuals will eventually homogenize allele frequencies across populations unless it is countered by another mechanism of evolution. Which of the following evolutionary forces is most likely to maintain the unique allele frequency of a non-mating-related gene in a population under the influence of gene flow? Natural selection Genetic drift Mutation Sexual selection Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
