The process of genetic transformation is the ability to move DNA into an organism and thereby alter its genotype or genetic makeup is central to both basic and applied molecular Biology. Genes derived from unrelated species and even other kingdoms, such as bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, that would otherwise be inaccessible to an organism, can be combined in the lab using genetic transformation techniques

What causes genetic drift?
random chance.
Is genetic drift of product of genetic change?
Genetic drift is a product of random sampling. Like all forms of sampling or selection, variation within the sample set is required. Thus for genetic drift to occur genetic change (mutation) is required. However, it would be an error to call genetic drift a product of genetic change.
What is the main difference between natural selection and genetic drift?
The main difference to remember is that natural selection is a nonrandom process while genetic drift is a random process.
Is genetic drift an adaptive change?
Genetic drift is considered a form of evolution. If a single population is split into two isolated groups then genetic drift will result in increasing differences over time. Eventually they will become two different species, unable to interbreed even if the two groups are brought back together.
What is the term for changes in allele frequency that that happen randomly from one generation to the next?
Genetic drift
What is the Random change in a populations allele frequency is known?
Random change in allele frequency is called genetic drift.
What causes genetic drift?
random chance.
Gene frequencies in a gene pool may shift randomly and by chance This is called?
Random changes.This would be called genetic drift.
What is an example of genetic drift APEX?
Random Chance
What are the changes of allele frequency in a small population that is due to random chance and don't follow the laws of probability?
Random changes in allele frequency are due to genetic drift.
Which of the following events do biologists consider a random change?
you do not provide any choices, so it is impossible to answer your question as stated.
A random change in a population's allele frequency?
Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms. By mutation, genetic drift, gene flow and natural selection.
What are random unpredictable events in genetics?
Mutation, and Genetic drift.
Is genetic drift of product of genetic change?
Genetic drift is a product of random sampling. Like all forms of sampling or selection, variation within the sample set is required. Thus for genetic drift to occur genetic change (mutation) is required. However, it would be an error to call genetic drift a product of genetic change.
Species drift to form a new species?
I think you mean genetic drift. Genetic drift is not strong enough in itself to cause speciation generally. Genetic drift is merely a sampling error in allele frequency change due to random events.
Why does genetic drift decrease the genetic diverstity of a population?
If I'm not mistaken genetic drift is the random change in the genome of a population over time. This being said it would be possible that this random changing could eventually remove certain diversity from a population.
Is the English peppered moth the example of random genetic drift?
The English Peppered Moth is a result of natural selection, not random genetic drift. This moth evolved because of the light colors of lichens on trees in their habitats.
