There are two population A (N = 500) and B (N=50). Due to genetic drift, both populations will lose its genetic diversity in a generation. Such losses become magnified over many generations. After 20 generations, what will be lose its original variation?

#Section 2: Evolution
  1. Both populations will lose 20% of its original variation

  2. A population will lose 20% of its original variation, but the B population will lose 50 %.

  3. A population will lose 10% of its original variation, but the B population will lose 20%.

  4. A population will lose 2% of its original variation, but the B population will lose 20 %.
