Definitions:

Genetic Variation

The diversity in gene frequencies within a population, which can result from mutation, genetic recombination, and gene flow, contributing to biological diversity.

Prey Species

Animals that are hunted and consumed by other animals (predators) for food.

Founder Effect

A genetic phenomenon that occurs when a small group of individuals breaks away from a larger population to establish a new population, leading to a reduction in genetic variation.

Genetic Drift

Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution that leads to random changes in the gene pool of a population, often having significant effects in small populations.
