The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the process of gene migration into a population from another population through interbreeding. 2. **Identifying Key Terms**: - Migration of genes - Interbreeding - Population 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Gene Pool**: Refers to the total collection of genes in a population, not specifically about migration. - **Gene Flow**: This term specifically refers to the transfer of genetic material (genes) between populations through interbreeding. - **Genetic Drift**: This is a mechanism of evolution that refers to random changes in allele frequencies in a population, not specifically related to migration. - **Gene Erosion**: This term describes the loss of genetic diversity in a population, typically in endangered species, and does not pertain to migration. 4. **Selecting the Correct Answer**: Based on the definitions and explanations of the terms, the correct answer to the question is **Gene Flow**. This is the process that describes the migration of genes into a population from another population through interbreeding. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is **Gene Flow**. ---

Fill up the balnks in the following paragraph by selecting the correct option. When migration of a section of population to another place and population occurs, I change in the original as well as in the new population new genes/ alleles are added to the ii, population and these are lost from the population. These would be a iv if this gene migration, happens multiple times. if the same change occurs by chance, it is called v. sometimes the change in allele frequency is so different in the new sample of population that they become a diffrent species. The original drifted population becomes founders and the effect is called vi
