1. The frequency of the allele that codes for wide paws in a large population of koala bears stays constant over time, generation after generation. This can be best described as an example of: Genetic drift Bottleneck effect The Hardy-Weinberg Principle 2. A wild forest fire wipes out most of the ants in a colony, drastically reducing the size of that population. As a result, there is a dramatic (although temporary) reduction in the frequency of the allele that codes for a long torso. This is best described as an example of: Genetic drift O Bottleneck effect O Founder effect The Hardy-Weinberg Principle O Founder effect
