PLEASE WRITE ME A 2 PARAGRAPH ESSAY ABOUT GENE POOLS Gene Pools

A gene pool is not simply composed of all of the genes of organisms within a population; it also contains all of the different combinations that make up the gene pool. Evolution in a population means that the gene pool has changed. The gene pool can decrease if a gene dies out and is no longer present in the population. When a species is in danger of becoming extinct, the number of genes in the gene pool has been reduced. This reduction in the gene pool limits variations. A diverse gene pool provides biodiversity in the population and increases the survival rate for the species. Small gene pools are greatly affected by genetic diseases, infertility, deformities, and changes in the environment.

Essay

To complete this assignment, you will research one species population that is in danger due to a decreased gene pool. You may pick whichever species population you wish, but the population must be in danger due to reduced variation in the gene pool. If you are unsure which species to choose, you may consider the following species:

Your essay must include two paragraphs. Please include the following components in your response:

Florida panther

tiger

Ethiopian wolf

European bison

elephant seal

cheetah

koala

Paragraph 1

your species

where it lives

an explanation of why the gene pool is reduced

Paragraph 2

What efforts are being made to increase the variation in the gene pool?

Have these efforts been successful?

Explain why you picked this particular species.
