Q3.17. In recentcenturies humans have, to a greater extent than ever before in ourhistory, moved great distances and mated with individuals who wereborn in different places. If this pattern continues in the future,which of the following is the most likely evolutionaryconsequence?
a.)Allele frequencies will become more similar acrosspopulations; adaptation to local conditions will be reduced.
b.)Mechanisms of evolution besides migration will cease to occurfor any human population.
c.)The overall rate of evolution will slow down to the point ofbeing unobservable.
d.)Allele frequencies will change much more drastically overtime as the effects of genetic drift increase.
