Question

Which of the following cannot introduce new alleles into a population's gene pool?

  1. Mutation
  2. Natural selection
  3. Gene flow
  4. All of the above 

hintHint:

Natural selection

The correct answer is: Natural selection


    Natural selection is the process with the help of which species adapt to the new environment by changing their genetic makeup. It does not introduce new alleles into the population.
