Ans) Genetic drift decreases genetic diversity within a population or it may also result in the loss of few rare alleles in the population.

  • It may give rise to new population which id distinct from original or parental population and thus genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution.
  • It is a change in allele frequencies due to random chance and the smaller population affects more than the larger one .
  • Genetic drift can be defined as the  change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population due to sampling error / random sampling of organisms.
