Question

The hypothetical Western Chickadee comprises three major populations: Pacific, Great Basin, and Rockies. In the chickadees, the bill color gene has two alleles (B_1 & B_2). Relevant information about genotypes and the populations follows: Pacific N =- 350,000 f (B_1) = 0.97 Great Basin N = 450,000 f (B_1) = 0.96 Rockies N = 750,000 f (B_1) = 0.98 B_1 B_1 bill color = black, relative fitness = 1.0 B_1 B_2 bill color = black, relative fitness = 1.0 B_2 B_2 bill color = yellow, relative fitness = 0.6 In which population is drift likely to have the largest effect? Pacific Great Basin Rockies There is not enough information provided to determine this.
