Question

It’s not the Wahlund effect, but Sewall Wright developed F-statistics while studying this phenomenon within cattle populations. Over time, this phenomenon reestablishes mutation-selection equilibrium through genetic purging. It’s not genetic drift nor speciation, but in extinction vortex diagrams, this (-5[1])phenomenon occurs after reductions in effective population size and population (-5[1])fragmentation. The increase in the frequency of (*) homozygous alleles due to this phenomenon leads to a decrease in fitness called its namesake depression. Royal (10[1])diseases such (10[1])as prognathism and hemophilia are (10[1])consequences of this (10[1])phenomenon observed during the intermarriage of royal families. For 10 points, identify this kind of mating between two genetically related parents. (10[2])■END■

ANSWER: inbreeding [accept incest; accept full-sib mating; accept heterozygosity before “mutation-selection” is read and reject afterward; prompt on fertilization or reproduction or pollination or mating or breeding before mating; reject “interbreeding” or “outbreeding” or “crossbreeding” or “outcrossing”]
