What Does the Combined Genetic Information of All Members of a Particular Population Form?
Question Answer
the combined alleles of all the individuals in a population is called the gene pool
what are two main sources of genetic variation mutations and recombination
what type of selection occurs when individuals in a population with the intermediate phenotype are selected for disruptive

At what point is genetic information combined?

When the genetic information from the parents combines together during fertilization, a genetic blueprint is created in the nucleus of the fertilized egg that is the “DNA blueprint”. The fertilized egg duplicates and divides into two identical cells and a copy of the “DNA blueprint” is reproduced in each cell.

What is the result of two populations no longer interbreeding?

When two populations can no longer interbreed, they have become different species.
