Not all. Certain types of diseases are caused by mutations. Some may seem like bad some may seem as good ones in certain cases. Sickle Cell anemia is a common example where it would be seem as bad in urban areas but in areas with high malaria populations its a good thing.
Genetic variation is one of the conditions required for Natural Selection to occur.
A large population increases genetics variation. Mutation will also increase genetics variation.
The introduction of animals into a breeding population that are unrelated will increase genetic variation.
If a population dwindles, there is low genetic variation and a species may risk extinction.
Meiosis is responsible for genetic variation
Loss of genetic variation(:Novanet:)
Human recombination is a significant source of genetic variation.
mutations cause genetic variation, and vice-versa. If there is a genetic variation (or lack of one), then this can effect the severity of the mutation.
The patterns of nitrogenous bases in DNA encoded on the genes creates genetic variation.
No, natural selection works on that genetic variation presented to it.
Genetic variation is necessary for natural selection to occur. This variation provides the raw material for differential survival and reproduction, which drives the process of natural selection. Without genetic variation, there would be no differences for natural selection to act upon.
genetic and environmental variation
total variation in the phenotye (IQ, introvert) that can attribute to genetic rather thatn environmental variation in the population, it is ALWAYS about groups NEVER about specific individual like Me or YOU :-)
The process responsible for genetic variation is genetic recombination, which occurs during meiosis when genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes. Mutations, which are changes in the DNA sequence, also contribute to genetic variation.
Genetic variation is one of the conditions required for Natural Selection to occur.
Mechanisms such as gene flow, mutation, genetic drift, and natural selection are all considered mechanisms for genetic variation. Non-genetic mechanisms, such as Lamarckian inheritance or acquired characteristics, are not considered valid mechanisms for genetic variation in the traditional sense.
They both decrease genetic variation. Stabilizing selection and disruptive selection reduce genetic variation
