Genetic drift is likely to be seen in a population

• That has a low mutation rate
• In which natural selection is occurring
• That is very small
• For which environmental conditions are changing

T6. Mutations are important because they bring about

• death of the organism in which they develop
• genetic variation needed for a population to evolve
• benefits for the individual, not for the population
• Hardey-Weinberg equilibrium within a population

What is the best explanation for a population being described as an evolutionary unit?

• Population can evolve, not individuals
• Natural selection only involves individuals, not populations
• Genetic changes only occur in populations
• A population's gene pool remains the same throughout time
