The process when some species migrate from the original to a new place, which in turn changes the allele frequency is called ______(a) Gene drift(b) Gene migration(c) Gene travel(d) Genetic recombinationI got this question during an interview.The doubt is from Hardy-Weinberg Principle-2 topic in division Evolution of Biology – Class 12

Answer»

Correct answer is (b) Gene migration

For explanation I would say: Gene migration or gene flow occurs when some SPECIES migrate from ORIGINAL to a new place. This changes the ALLELE frequency in the OLD as well as a new place. So, new genes or ALLELES are being added to the new population and removed from the old one.
