Heredity increases diversity among organisms by nonrandom mating, which is the preference of the organism to mate with another based on specific characteristics. Nonrandom mating has two forms. Inbreeding is the first form where organisms with the same genotypes will mate with each other resulting in minimal genetic diversity. Outbreeding is the second form where organisms of different genotypes will mate with each other resulting in an increase in genetic diversity. The variation in the heredity of an organism allows it to be more flexible and can also guarantee better survival rate of the population under the given environmental conditions.

<h2>what is an atomic mass of an atom referring to?</h2>

Lr. The atomic mass of an element is the average mass of the atoms of an element measured in atomic mass unit (amu, also known as daltons, D). The atomic mass is a weighted average of all of the isotopes of that element, in which the mass of each isotope is multiplied by the abundance of that particular isotope.
