Respuesta :

Answer:

a. the founder effect

Explanation:

The founder effect is occurs when few members of an original population start a new colony and becomes established in thew colony. This may result in a decline in genetic variation of the new colony from the original larger population it once belongs to.  

The birds that are separated by the storm which makes them to end in a different destination can be said to possess genes that represent a non-random sample of that of the original population .
