Genetic Drift is a term used to describe part of the evolutionary process. Genetic Drift is a term describing the random environmental factors such as volcanic eruptions, trees falling down, forest fires etc, that affect the gene frequency in the population of a species after the event has taken place. So, we can say that genetic drift in a population can affect the gene pool by either allowing the gene pool to increase of decrease. A typical example is that of the worldwide rhino population. The more the rhinos are poached, the smaller the genetic pool becomes. Eventually this can lead to the extinction of the species.

Legumes, a type of plant, require Rhizobia, a type of soil bacteria, to survive since these organisms fix nitrogen during photos
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The answer is: the legumes will extinct, too.


It is known that plants cannot directly use atmospheric nitrogen. But, some legumes have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that live in their root system. These bacteria are called Rhizobia and have the ability of nitrogen-fixation. In the root nodules, they use atmospheric nitrogen to convert it into ammonia, and later to ammonium, which can be used by plants. When legumes die, nitrogen from their remaining is released back to the soil where it is available to the other plants.

So, if <span>Rhizobia suddenly became extinct, the symbiotic relationship between will be interrupted. The legumes will not be able to use atmospheric nitrogen without the help of Rhizobia, and eventually, they will extinct, too.</span>
