Question

1. how many different organisms are there before the founder effect? 5. how many different organisms are there after the founder effect? 6. how does forming a new population affect biodiversity? before founder effect after

Explanation:

1. Before the founder - effect, there are many different organisms, representing high biodiversity in the original population. 5. After the founder - effect, a subset of the original organisms forms a new population, so there are fewer different organisms, reducing biodiversity. 6. Forming a new population through the founder - effect reduces biodiversity because only a limited number of the original organisms' genetic material is carried over to the new population.

Answer:

1. Many different organisms, high biodiversity.
2. Fewer different organisms, lower biodiversity.
3. Reduces biodiversity.
