Problem:
Consider the following scenario: There are two populations ("Barbie" and "Ken") of the same species, and at a specific autosomal loci there are only 2 possible alleles: M and m. The Barbie and Ken populations differ in their initial frequency of the M allele. In the Barbie population the initial frequency of M is 0.5 and the population size is limited to 4000 individuals. In the Ken population, the initial frequency of M is 0.5 and the population size is limited to 3000 individuals. Which of the following statements has the most plausible prediction of what will happen in the Ken and Barbie's futures? Question options: It is impossible to make any predictions about what will happen to the populations in the future. The Barbie population is more likely to lose its genetic diversity before the Ken population does. At that point the Barbie population will likely be made up only of MM individuals. The Barbie population is more likely to lose its genetic diversity before the Ken population does. At that point the Barbie population will likely be made up only of mm individuals. The Ken population is more likely to lose its genetic diversity before the Barbie
