Understanding Evolution : Personal response question Genetic analysis of a large population of mink inhabiting an island in Michigan revealed a surprising large number of loci with a fixed allele—that is, loci without any genetic variation in the population. Which of the following is the most probable explanation for this genetic homogeneity? a. The population exhibited nonrandom mating, producing homozygous genotypes. b. The gene pool of this population never experienced mutation or gene flow. c. A very small number of mink may have colonized this island, and this founder effect and subsequent genetic drift fixed many alleles. d. The colonizing population may have had much more genetic diversity, but in the last year or two, genetic drift fixed these alleles by chance.
