What is genic drift
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/9
Genetic drift is change in allele frequencies due to random
chance events.
Two types are the Founder effect and the Bottleneck effect.
The founder effect is when a subset of a population goes to a
new are where there are no other of that same species.
The bottleneck effect is when a large population is reduced to a
small population.
Genetic drift decreases variation in a population and has a
greater effect on a smaller population than a larger one.

🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/9
A hypothesis is a suggestion of a way to explain something. If
the hypothesis is tested and confirmed, it can advance to the
status of theory. The conclusion of testing a hypothesis will be
either that the hypothesis is confirmed, or it is not
confirmed.
