Definitions:

Genetic Variation

The differences in DNA sequences among individuals within a population, leading to diversity in traits.

Genotypic Frequencies

The proportion of different genotypes in a population, which can change over time due to evolutionary processes.

Nonevolving Population

A theoretical population in which allele frequencies do not change over time, effectively not undergoing evolution.

Speciation

Origin of new species due to the evolutionary process of descent with modification.
