Genetics of evolution Flashcards
1
Q
Natural selection
A
survival of individuals in population because they have alleles
that improve their chances of survival + reproduction
2
Q
Evolution
A
change in allele freq of certain alleles in gene pool over time due to
natural selection
3
Q
Genetic drift
A
process of change in genetic composition due to random events
rather than natural selection
4
Q
Migration
A
movement of population groups due to change in favourable conditions.
Increase gene flow thus there is increase in genetic diversity.
