Gallardo and Araneda (1994) studied populations of the rodent, Ctenomys maulinus, before and after an eruption of a volcano in the Andes. Survival was random, and the rodent populations after the eruption were only a small fraction of the size of populations before the eruption. Which of the following is likely to be TRUE of the surviving populations relative to the populations before the eruption? a) Remaining populations will have reduced genetic diversity
b) Adaptive alleles have decreased in frequency
c) All of the answer choices are possible outcomes in this scenario.
d) Maladaptive alleles have increased in frequency
