Ascientist has been tracking and studying a population of deer in yellowstone national park. he surveys the population every six months. usually, the population is thriving and has a gene pool with a wide variety of traits. but during one six-month period, an event occurred that affected the population, and when the scientist returned, the amount of genetic variation had decreased significantly. which of the following is most likely the event that occurred to change the population?

explanation:

idk

just go with your heart buddy

genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).

during the process of dna replication, brdu can replace thymidine and incorporate into the newly synthesized dna, cell proliferation thus can be reflected in the extent of brdu incorporation.
