Question

identify the mechanism discussed below. the transfer of genes from one population to another drives the changes that occur in populations a permanent change in the dna sequence of a gene the random change in the frequency of an allele in a population mutation gene flow genetic drift natural selection

Explanation:

• Gene flow: Definition matches "the transfer of genes from one population to another".
• Natural selection: Drives changes in populations by favoring traits that enhance survival and reproduction.
• Mutation: A permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene.
• Genetic drift: Involves random changes in allele frequencies in a population.

Answer:

1. gene flow
2. natural selection
3. mutation
4. genetic drift
