Answer:

A. When predators are removed from an island, the island's population of finches grows larger

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Genetic drift is the changes in the number of the allies or the existing genetic species over time the variation in population due to the random sampling the genetic drift may cause the variation in the population to disappear completely.
  • An example of the population of rabbits having brown fur and white fur were in the brown fur is the dominant alleles.
