Why are small populations more prone to genetic disease
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Inbreeding  and greater chance of passing deletereous mutations through generations

Explanation:

There are several reasons why small populations are more prone to genetic diseases. One of them is that in small populations there tends to be more inbreeding , that is breeding between individuals are closely related. Inbreeding increase the chances of offspring being affected by deletereus homozygous genotypes.

On the other hand, the acquisition of a deleterious mutation in a small population is more likely to be spread in that small population  than in a large population.
