The correct answer is: C.Drift still affects allele frequencies without the influence of mutations.

Explanation:

Even in the absence of mutations, genetic drift can still influence allele frequencies. Genetic drift is the random fluctuation in allele frequencies due to chance events, which can be more pronounced in small populations. Drift occurs independently of whether mutations are happening because it is a random process, not driven by changes in genetic material.

Here’s why the other options are incorrect:

A.Allele frequencies stabilize due to lack of varia...
