Which of the following statements is an example of genetic drift?
a. Allele g for fat production increases in a small population because birds with more body fat have higher survivorship in a harsh winter.
b. Random mutation increases the frequency of allele A in one population but not in another.
c. Allele R reaches a frequency of 1.0 because individuals with genotype rr are sterile.
d. Allele m is lost when a virus kills all but a few individuals and just by chance none of the survivors possess allele m

Color blindness is X linked recessive disorder. X+ chromosome carry a normal allele but Xc chromosome carries defective allele. When frequency of colorblindness female (0.10), colorblind male (0.30) and heterozygous female (0.20). Random matting population, what will be frequency of carrier female?
