Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a scenario where there are no mutations, no migration, random mating, and equal chances of reproducing for all individuals, there is no mechanism for evolution to occur. Therefore, the most probable outcome is that no evolution will occur, and the population will remain stable over time. Neither a bottleneck event nor a change in allele frequency leading to rapid evolution is expected to occur in this situation. Extinction would only occur if there were external factors, such as environmental changes or catastrophes, that affect the survival of the population.
