Answer:

The production of an evolutionarily independent group of organisms

Explanation:

Genetic drift is part of the evolutionary process. It is a change that occurs randomly in the frequency of DNA from one generation to another generation. And as a result of that change, some particular features may appear in a given population. This can cause some genes to become dominant or a disease to disappear from a population.
