    A) all the genes that occur in the population.

    Explanation:

    The gene pool is defined as the set of all genes in population. The larger the genetic pool in population is, the grater genetic diversity is so the population can survive intense process of selection. On the other hand, low genetic diversity can cause reduced biological fitness and the chance of extinction is increased.
