Binghamton Bio 114 Exam 2 Questions and Answers Already Passed Genetic Drift Refers to the ongoing variation in allele frequencies within a population over time due to random mating events. Genetic drift causes allele frequencies to fluctuate randomly. Random Mating Influences allele frequencies by altering how often specific alleles appear within a population. This process is inherently unpredictable, with allele frequencies increasing or decreasing randomly. Bottlenecks O...

Genetic Drift - the constant changing of allele frequencies (that percentage of all alleles any one, or more, allele occupies in a population) in a population over time, due to random mating. Random Mating - has the effect of changing how frequently an allele is found in a population. GENETIC DRIFT IS RANDOM, ALWAYS DRIFTING UP AND DOWN bottlenecks - where a gene pool is significantly reduced for some reason and a relatively small allele diversity remains. Founder event/effect - a cha...

The hypothesis of punctuated equilibrium was based on what model for speciation? - peripatetic speciation What is true microevolution? - it is the kind of evolution that can change the relative abundance of a particular allele in a gene pool over the course of generations A relatively small number of Amish immigrants came to this country in the 1700's. They have since greatly increased their number while remaining largely segregated from the rest of the population. Polydactyly (having ...
