genetic drift, gene flow and mutation bias.
• natural selection — process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype, or genetic constitution;
• genetic drift — random fluctuations in the frequencies of alleles from generation to generation due to chance events;
• gene flow — the movement of genes from one population to another population;
• mutation — the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes.
