As the size of the tiger population decreases, the genetic pool of the species decreases too. This results in a limitation on the variations which will be introduced within the genetic makeup of the tigers. This lack of variation will result in serious implications. For example, if an illness spreads within the tiger population, it can potentially wipe out the whole population, possibly causing their extinction.
Answered by Vishal kumar | 1 year agoOnly variations that confer an advantage to an individual organism will survive in a population. Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
How is the equal genetic contribution of male and female parents ensured in the progeny?
Explain how sexual reproduction gives rise to more viable variations than asexual reproduction. How does this affect the evolution of those organisms that reproduce sexually?
What evidence do we have for the origin of life from inanimate matter?
Explain the importance of fossils in deciding evolutionary relationships.
