Genetic Drift

Genetic Drift: Random change in allele frequency causes an allele to become more common or less common.
.
Example: T=Tall, t=Short (T:t)
5:7
Only The Three Circled Giraffes Leave Offspring
5:5
Only The Two Circled Giraffes Leave Offspring
10:0
Now The Only Allele Present Is The Tall (T) Allele
