-genetic drift occurs by chance, the frequency of certain genetic traits changing for different generations, like how results of a coin toss may vary
-whether it provides survival advantage depends on the trait of which the frequency has increased
-most organisms that survive long enough to reproduce and pass down genes often have characteristics that are useful for survival, so most genes which are present in high frequency in a population due to genetic drift would be useful to the survival of the organisms
