The most common type of mechanical weathering that occurs in mid-latitude is called frost action/frost shattering/freeze and thaw weathering. this type of weathering occurs in mountainous areas of mid-latitude regions, where the temperature fluctuates around zero degrees. When water from snowmelt or rainfall freezes in cracks in rocks it expands. The continuous expansion and contraction of rocks as water freezes and thaws will eventually cause rocks to break off into angular fragments.

Montano1993 [528]

It is associated with more or less why a genetic counselor would need to look at distinct human populations, with which an individual is related to when doing certain kinds of tests. For instance, if someone knows about their ancestry then the counselor would be able to tell about the genetic disorders most commonly occurring in that particular ancestry.  

The basic way of seeing at it from a population genetics point of view is how populations do differ genetically and how does it associate with the probabilities of exhibiting a mutation in the person.
