Best Answer

When genes are exchanged due to the mixing of populations, the result is gene flow. Genetic drift, along with natural selection, mutation, and migration, is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution.

Evolution. Gene flow between two populations of the same species exchanges alleles that one population does not have with another populations gene pool by interbreeding and thus changing allelic frequency in both populations gene pool, thus evolution. Much more effective in some sort of large change in smaller populations.
