The rare changes in DNA are called mutation ...
BUT genetic diversity results from the shuffling of paired genes in normal sexual reproduction.
Sex was "invented" to foil parasites, even before two different sexes were developed.
Mutagenesis
Organisms produced through binary fission do not exhibit a great deal of genetic variation because this process involves a single parent cell dividing into two identical daughter cells, meaning they have the same genetic information. However, mutations can occur during the process, leading to some genetic diversity.
A bottleneck can lead to a significant reduction in the genetic diversity of a population, causing certain alleles to be lost and others to become more common. This can increase the frequency of rare alleles and result in genetic drift, potentially leading to an increase in genetic diseases or reduced fitness in the population.
It can be in some cases but its very rare.
White Bengal tigers are not a separate subspecies; they are a result of a genetic mutation that causes a lack of pigment in their fur. The gene pool of white tigers is limited due to inbreeding practices to maintain their distinctive coloration, which can lead to health issues and reduced reproductive success. As a result, conservation efforts focus on maintaining genetic diversity and protecting wild tiger populations as a whole.

Once thought to be a rare disorder, TS is one of the most common genetic conditions
Yes, they are.... There are only many out there... it comes from a white male tiger and a normal female tiger when they breed it comes out to a white tiger. But the reason they are so rare is because... when there out in the wild there easier to catch as prey than a normal tiger because of there white and black hair.. pluse they dont blend in with anything.
It's a rare neurological disorder.
White tigers are a rare genetic variant of the Bengal tiger. They breed similarly to their orange counterparts, with mating occurring year-round and females giving birth to a litter of 2-4 cubs after a gestation period of about 3.5 months. Breeding efforts in captivity aim to maintain genetic diversity and avoid inbreeding.
In biology, the concept of normal distribution is used to study genetic variations within a population by analyzing how traits are distributed among individuals. This helps scientists understand the range of genetic diversity and how common or rare certain traits are within a population. By applying statistical methods based on normal distribution, researchers can make predictions about the likelihood of certain genetic traits occurring in a population.
Blue eyes in Dachshunds are not common and can be considered rare. It is more commonly seen in dogs with dapple (merle) coat patterns, which can also come with an increased risk of health issues. Blue eyes in Dachshunds can be a result of genetic factors or breeding patterns.
