Genetic drift simulation: understanding evolution

Biology
1 answer:
sleet_krkn [62]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution in which allele frequencies of a population change over generations due to chance (sampling error).

Genetic drift occurs in all populations of non-infinite size, but its effects are strongest in small populations.

Genetic drift may result in the loss of some alleles (including beneficial ones) and the fixation.

Genetic drift can have major effects when a population is sharply reduced in size by a natural disaster (bottleneck effect) or when a small group splits off from the main population to found a colony (founder effect).

Question 3 (2.25 points)
grigory [225]
D. Conclusion

After gathering data in support of a hypothesis, you can make a conclusion.

A hypothesis has to be tested multiple times by multiple researchers to become a theory. A fact has to be proven multiple times as well (but theory is a much better word).
