What effect describes a change in allele frequency following a dramatic reduction in the size of a population?

What is the situation called in which allele frequencies in a population remain the same?

What is the term for the separation of a species or population so that they no longer interbreed and evolve into two separate species?

What form of reproductive isolation occurs when two populations are separated by geographic barriers such as rivers, mountains, or bodies of water?

What term describes the number of times that an allele occurs in a gene pool compared with the number of alleles in that pool for the same gene?

What is the term for the movement of genes into or out of a population?

What effect describes the change in allele frequencies as a result of the migration of a small subgroup of a population?

What is the term for the formation of a new species?
