An example of genetic drift resulting from the founder effect, of the available answers listed below, would most likely be a situation in which a population commonly expresses traits that are otherwise rare in the species. An example of this might be an animal with longer limbs than other members of the same species - there have been real-life examples of this studied with lizards.
