Gene Flow Flashcards
Another mechanism for microevolution is _
Gene flow
In general flow, gene pool in a group of organisms is altered by transfer of _ to and from different populations
Individuals and their genes
Gene common in one population can represent _ in other population
A new variant
This variant can _ so second population becomes more genetically similar to first
Out-compete original
Migrant could carry _ lost from first pop which could be added to second
Rare gene
Migrant carrying Gene lost from other population could increase likelihood of _
Diverging into separate species
Gene flow occurs simply by member of one pop finding way to _
Move to another pop
Gene migrant Carrie’s can flow to _
New pop
Impact of gene flow greater when two pops involved are small and not
Genetically diverse
