How might the lack of genetic diversity found in populations of endangered species might hinder their recovery?
Lack of genetic diversity can becomes a problem when a species is hit with infectious diseases. If all the organisms are very similar, then it is very likely that they will all be affected by the same disease, thus destroying the species as a whole. In species with high amounts of genetic diversity, a disease may destroy a section of the population, but many individuals will be resistant to the disease.
