The serengeti region of africa contains a population of cheetahs and a population of lions. studies have shown that the cheetah population has very low genetic diversity, while the genetic diversity of the lion population is quite high. the cheetah population is also much smaller than the lion population. both populations are vulnerable to infection with a particular virus that can be fatal in both species. what is the most likely outcome if both populations are infected with this virus? a. the cheetah population is more likely to survive because lower genetic diversity increases immunity to viruses. b. the lion population is more likely to survive because larger populations are immune to viruses. c. the lion population is more likely to survive because it is more likely to have individuals with traits to combat the virus. d. the cheetah population is more likely to survive because there are fewer individuals for the virus to attack.
