Due to the effect of bad weather like extreme cold, some organisms cant survive even in the same specie. For example, goats. The goats with thick fur survive because the weather favors them to live on thereby selecting them so the others die off. they reproduce stronger animals with thicker fur of different thickness and colors making the organisms different and better . ..and diversified.

Answer:

Explanation:

   Natural selection is the selection of species and organisms in a given region, or even different ecosystems that are in synergy between each other. Other mechanisms of species evolution include genetic drift, gene flow, mutations, and geographic isolation. The basic concept of natural selection is that favorable traits that are hereditary become more common in succeeding generations of a population of reproductive organisms, and that unfavorable traits that are hereditary become less common. Natural selection acts on the phenotype, or observable characteristics of an organism, such that individuals with favorable phenotypes are more likely to survive and reproduce than those with less favorable phenotypes. Gradually, the idea of ​​plurality of existing species was developed and obtained from the evolutionary process, where natural selection prioritized some intraspecific variations through the struggle for survival of the fittest.

  According to increase genetic diversity, we can infer that if a sort of animal species are isolated geographically, they are going to reproduce with by themselves, and then can orign such a new specie as the same specie, with the same characteristcs. In another hand, if you have a genetic drift, a gene flow or a mutation, it can changes throughout the species fenotypes and genotypes. Natural selection can force some populations to change their characteristics - to evolve. However, nothing compared to man-made selection triggered by ecological forces, such as selection under the conditions of environmental pollution.

  To answer and summarize this answer, one factor that may influence natural selection and genetic diversity is climate. However we have a lot of factor that can influence naturak selection and genetic diversity, like the region, the quantite of species are living there and mainly the human beings action.
