Full Description
This exam focuses on the population genetic structure and its ecological consequences. Key concepts include gene flow, genetic drift, and inbreeding within populations and their overall impact on ecological dynamics.
Understanding population genetics is crucial for conservation biology, particularly when assessing genetic health and viability of endangered species. It provides insights into management strategies that promote biodiversity.
Students will demonstrate their comprehension of population structures and the resultant ecological implications verbally. Discussions will encompass how genetic patterns affect interactions among individuals and their environments.
Analyzing case studies of populations affected by genetic structuring will enhance contextual understanding and application of theoretical principles.
Sample Questions
- What is the effect of genetic drift on small populations in fragmented habitats?
- How can gene flow influence the genetic diversity of a population?
