Gene Shuffling-one of the two main sources of genetic variation(other is mutations)
Gene Shuffling happens at the gametes/sex cells formation when the chromosomes line up in the middle at random during meiosis. So that means the 23 pairs of chromosomes we have can produce 8.4 million different combinations of genes.
Think of it as to playing cards. Each card represents an allele/trait. When you shuffle the cards, it leads to many different hands(Poker) you can obtain.
I hope my horrible explanation helps.

What are the two types of gene shuffling?
Gene shuffling means the genetic recombination and mutations of a gene pool of a species where genetic recombination is the mixture of parent alleles that are passed on and the mutations are the random changes in an organisms DNA that are passed on.
Why do you think gene pool diversity is important?
if a gene pool is restricted hereditary faults can be emphasized
When did Out of the Gene Pool end?
Out of the Gene Pool ended in 2008.
How are recessive genes kept in the gene pool?
Recessive genes are kept in the gene pool through carriers who may not exhibit the trait themselves but can pass it on to their offspring. These carriers contribute to genetic diversity in the population, ensuring that recessive traits are preserved even when not expressed.
What is meant by the term human gene pool?
Biodiversity refers to the large number or variety of plants and animals in an ecosystem. A gene pool is the complete set of unique alleles in a species or population. So, when there is diversity in the gene pool, there is difference in the characteristics of species.
What is the definition of gene shuffling?
Gene shuffling is the process of recombining the starting pool of sequences to generate new gene-sequences that subsequently can be screened for particular desired characteristics.
What are the two types of gene shuffling?

When did Out of the Gene Pool end?
Out of the Gene Pool ended in 2008.
Does a gene pool include the genes of individuals that cannot reproduce?
No, a gene pool consists of all the different alleles and variations of genes within a population of interbreeding individuals. Individuals that cannot reproduce, such as sterile individuals, do not contribute to the gene pool as they do not pass on their genes to the next generation.
How is a gene pool like a pool of gene?
A gene pool is the total number of genes of every individual in an interbreeding population. Which is like having every single gene of a population into one big pool (population).
How are recessive genes kept in the gene pool?
Recessive genes are kept in the gene pool through carriers who may not exhibit the trait themselves but can pass it on to their offspring. These carriers contribute to genetic diversity in the population, ensuring that recessive traits are preserved even when not expressed.
The combined alleles of all the individuals in a population is what?
The entire collection of genes among a population is called the "gene pool".
The total number of genes present in a population is the?
gene pool
When was Gene Pool born?
Gene Pool was born on August 17, 1951.
What is the birth name of Gene Pool?
Gene Pool's birth name is Dennis McKibben.
What is the movement of gene into and out of a gene pool called?
gene flow
