True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Frequencies Evolve True or False. • • Evolutionary forces can cause the frequency of alleles in a population to change. • A. True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Frequencies Evolve True or False. • • Because mutation rates in nature are very slow, mutations can only change allele frequency over long periods of time. • A. True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Evolve Frequencies • True or False. • Gene flow refers to the mixing of genes due to imigration. • A.

False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Frequencies Evolve True or False. • • Genetic drift refers to a change in allele frequency because of random occurrences. • A. True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Frequencies Evolve True or False. • • Large populations are more likely to undergo genetic drift than are smaller populations • A. True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Frequencies Evolve True or False. • • An allele can increase or decrease in frequency, depending on its effects on survival and reproduction. • A. True • B. False • HUMAN EVOLUTION Homework 16-2 How Populations Forces That Change Population Allele Evolve Frequencies • True or False. • Natural selection is one of the powerful agents of genetic change. • A.
