उत्तर

This statement is false.

Explanation:

The total set of genes and alleles present in a population is the “gene pool”. Genetic erosion, on the other hand, refers to the loss or gradual disappearance of genetic diversity, meaning the reduction in the variety of genes within a species or population. Therefore, genetic erosion is about the loss of genetic diversity, not the total gene set itself.
