Question

The events that lead to genetic drift are _______.

Answer 1

Genetic drift is a process in which allele frequencies within a population change by chance alone as a result of sampling error from generation to generation. Genetic drift is a random process that can lead to large changes in populations over a short period of time.

Answer 2

Genetic drift, by definition, is driven entirely by random chance, as determined by the laws of probability. If there are any other factors involved, it's not genetic drift.

Answer 3

so anything could cause genetic drift to occur

Answer 4

GD simply means a random event that changes the allelic frequency.
