Adult female monkeys from one population breed with male monkeys of a nearby population. The introduction of new alleles into the first population’s gene pool is an example of...

natural selection.

genetic drift.

mutation.

gene flow. (I'm guessing this one :P)

In population genetics, gene flow (also known as gene migration) is the transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another. Migration into or out of a population may be responsible for a marked change in allele frequencies. So I would agree with you, it is Gene Flow. :) If you found this helpful, please click the "Best Response" button. :) Welcome to Openstudy!
