genetic drift Explanation: Genetic drift - /In small populations, chance events produce outcomes that differ from theoretical predictions./ /Genetic drift is a change in gene frequency that is the result of chance deviation from expected genotypic frequencies./ OBS: Chance is involved, but as the means, not the end. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2012-04-21 22:05:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS: I chose these examples because both marriage and random mating affect ancestral lines (ie genetics).
