A large population of zippleflops live in a rainforest on the forest floor. Ten years ago a large strip of the forest was cleared for agriculture which resulted in a small portion of the zippleflop population being separated from the larger population. The clearing is large enough that zippleflops cannot cross it. Which of the following statements is true? Select all that apply. Genetic drift will have a larger impact on the smaller, separated population because of the founder effect The genotype frequencies of the smaller population are likely quite different from the larger population If a mutation arose in each population, the mutation would likely become fixed (reach 100 %) in the smaller population The ailele frequencies of the populations are identical to each other.
