Gene Frequency and Evolution
... Changes in gene frequency (how often a gene shows up in a population) is often the result of environmental pressures. If there is a change in the environment, often organisms will start to die off or find ways to deal with that change. Some changes are small: an increase in the pH of a lake or soil ...
