How immigration and emigration affect the gene pool?
AuraMartinezgp8125
Movement of parts of a population may result in geographic isolation. If the isolation is complete, and for an extended period (many generations) then the gene pools of the two populations will diverge due to genetic drift and adaptive changes due to being in a different environment, perhaps with different food sources and predators etc.
This will eventually result in a separate species being formed.
It would be difficult to simulate with rabbits, but it can be simulated with bacteria, where you can grow bacteria on one type of agar, then take some off and introduce it into a new environment and, over many generations (lasting only a few weeks) change it into a species which would not be able to survive on the original agar.

When did Out of the Gene Pool end?
Out of the Gene Pool ended in 2008.
The hardy-weinberg states that in a population do not change unless outside factors affect the gene pool?
allele frequencies
What are major gene pool center?
Major gene pool centers Major gene pool centers Major gene pool centers
What is All of the genes of the reproductively active members of a population?
Gene Pool
The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that in a population do not change unless outside factors affect the gene pool.?
allele frequencies
How does gene flow affect the fitness of population?
Gene flow within a population distributes mutations among the individuals. Immigration and emigration transport alleles into and out of a population's gene pool, thus affecting the result of natural selection.
Explain how different factors can affect a population's gene pool?
If someone from outside of your gene pool were to have a child inside of your population, it could possibly affect the gene pool of your population. If someone from Alaska had a child in Mississippi it would affect the gene pool of Mississippi.
What does not change in a population unless outside factores affect the gene pool?
allelie frequencies
In population genetics what is the process of gene flow?
The transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another. Immigration may also result in the addition of genetic variants to the established gene pool.
How does natural slection affect the allele frequency in a gene pool?
It changes it by, generally, selecting out some alleles thus allowing other alleles to increase their numbers in the populations gene pool.
What is the movement of genes into and out of a a gene pool called?
A gene getting on the pool. A gene getting off the pool.
When did Out of the Gene Pool end?
Out of the Gene Pool ended in 2008.
How is a gene pool like a pool of gene?
A gene pool is the total number of genes of every individual in an interbreeding population. Which is like having every single gene of a population into one big pool (population).
The combined alleles of all the individuals in a population is what?
The entire collection of genes among a population is called the "gene pool".
What is a small gene pool?
a small pool of genes when a short guy named gene owns a pool
How did the nature of immigration to America change over time and how did this affect relations between new immigrants and people who were already in America?
The nature of immigration to America changed over time by pool
When was Gene Pool born?
Gene Pool was born on August 17, 1951.
