Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Genetic drift is the alteration of different genotypes in a small population which can cause individuals and organisms getting wiped out, not being able to reproduce, and disappearance. Allele frequencies change randomly each generation in a gene pool (collection of different genes present in a particular population: species in this gene pool have a choice to leave the gene pool or die out).
