selection stimulation

 

i decided to portray the concept of selection through a monopoly board! (sorry if my hand writing is messy) but to sum it up........
  • an increase in fitness of selection for the favored allele can lead to an increase in allele frequencies throughout generations
  • a higher fitness in the favored allele can lead to a quick increase in allele frequency in fewer generation
  • population size affects change in the allele frequencies
  • genetic drift can have a stronger effect on smaller population sizes
  • genetic drift is completely random and can lead to variation in the allele frequency
  • a combination of allele frequency, fitness of the selected, population size, and genetic drift all factor into what is selected
