How is genetic variation related to a species chance of becoming extinct?

Little or no variation could lead to failure to adapt to changing conditions. Too much variation would prevent the species from passing on beneficial traits because they would change too rapidly.

What is mutation and how is it related to evolution?
A mutation is any change in the DNA. Mutations provide the genetic variation that evolution by natural selection needs to select from.

The more variation there is in a group of specimens, the more evolution can occur between them.
What is the difference between the Bottleneck Effect and the Founder Effect?
The term Bottleneck Effect is used when a population has been reduced at some point in time to a small number of individuals with a loss of genetic diversity as a result. The population size may return but the bottleneck effect will be seen in the loss of genetic variation. The Founder Effect also describes a population with a loss in genetic variation, however the cause is not associated a decrease on total population, but in a small part of the original population moving into a new habitat and becoming genetically isolated from the original population.
