Question

When an organism joins a new population, its genes become part of the new population’s gene pool. How does this gene flow affect populations? Gene flow between populations has no effect on the gene pool. Gene flow between populations increases genetic diversity over time. Gene flow between populations decreases genetic diversity over time. Gene flow increases the chance for reproductive isolation which can cause new species to form.
