| Description: Genetic Diversity All species consist of individuals that vary genetically from one another to some degree Encompasses the varieties in DNA among individuals within species and populations The raw material for adaptation to local conditions Populations with low genetic diversity are vulnerable Inbreeding depression = genetically similar parents mate and produce inferior offspring Genetic bottleneck = limited variety of genetic material is available to be passed along by the small number of surviving individuals to their descendants Picture Stats: Views: 282 Filesize: 125.09kB Height: 985 Width: 440 Source: https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=35762 |
