This review will guide you through an adaptive, research-backed study session. As you answer questions, we will actively assess your current understanding of the material. Questions will continue to be drawn until you have demonstrated mastery of each learning objective.
Reviews are graded based on completion. You will receive full credit for achieving 100% mastery or answering all questions.
Learning objectives for this review:
- Explain how mutations, sexual reproduction, and genetic recombination contribute to genetic diversity in populations.
- Discuss how genetic variation is essential for natural selection and adaptation.
- Explain how factors such as gene flow and population structure influence the distribution of genetic variation within and between populations.
