Explain the term genetic drift.

Genetic drift is a phenomenon more common in the small population which may lead to the accumulation of different changes which lead to the formation of different species.


The accidental survival of the beetles of one colour that changed the common characteristics of the resultant population So accidental change in the small population can change the frequency of some gene in the population example accidental red beetles get crushed by elephant while green survived led to genetic drift which change the colour of the population to green.
