  1. Analyze and evaluate the effects of other evolutionary mechanisms, including genetic drift, gene flow, mutation, and recombination. Unit 11 7F

  2. Let’s remember… • An allele is an alternative form of one gene B stands for black b stands for brown The allele would be…

  3. Genetic Drift • An evolutionary mechanism in which allele frequencies change in a population

  4. Allele frequency changes due to… • Natural disaster like flood, fire, or earthquake • A random change of the population (some are eliminated) • Different from natural selection b/c its by chance or randomly

  5. Original Pop Pop after change R = red star r = green heart 6R, 5r5r

  6. Bottleneck Effect • The change in allele frequency where only genes of the surviving population members can be passed to future generations

  7. Gene Pool • the sum of all the genes in an interbreeding population

  8. Gene Pool • 2 blue alleles • 1 red allele • 12 green alleles

  9. Founder Effect • The change in allele frequency in a gene pool that changes from a large population to a small population • Ex: small number of individuals get separated from a larger population… the change in the allele frequency is the founder effect

  10. Founder Effect

  11. Gene Flow • Occurs when the genes of 1 population flow into a different population • This change causes a shift in allele frequency

  12. Immigration • Alleles move INTO a population

  13. Emigration • Alleles move OUT OF a population

  14. Lots of gene flow… • Slows down evolution • Lots of new alleles coming into and out of a population • More genetic variation within a population • Makes 2 populations more similar

  15. Lack of gene flow… • Less variation within a population • Makes 2 populations more different and separates them

  16. Mutation • Any change in the genetic material of a cell • Can occur within individual genes OR • Can involve changes in piece of chromosomes

  17. If the mutation is beneficial to the organism, the mutation will be passed on to offspring • Slowly over time the mutation will become more common in a population

  18. Recombination • A source of heritable variation • Occurs for 2 reasons: • Independent assortment • Crossing over

  19. Independent Assortment

  20. Crossing Over

  21. Hardy-Weinberg Principle • States that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant unless one ore more factors cause those frequencies to change

  22. Hardy-Weinberg Equation P2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 Homozygous dominant Homozygous recessive Heterozygous p = dominant allele frequency q = recessive allele frequency

  23. Genetic Equilibrium • The situation in which allele frequencies remain constant (don’t change) • If frequencies don’t change, the population doesn't evolve

  24. Conditions required to maintain genetic equilibrium: • Random mating • Population must be large • No immigration or emigration • No mutations • No natural selection
