Difference between Natural selection and Population bottleneck

Natural selection vs. Population bottleneck

Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. A population bottleneck or genetic bottleneck is a sharp reduction in the size of a population due to environmental events (such as earthquakes, floods, fires, disease, or droughts) or human activities (such as genocide).

Similarities between Natural selection and Population bottleneck

Natural selection and Population bottleneck have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Cambridge University Press, Fixation (population genetics), Founder effect, Genetic diversity, Genetic drift, Genome, Mutation, Offspring, Population, Selective breeding, Speciation.

Allele

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.

Cambridge University Press

Cambridge University Press (CUP) is the publishing business of the University of Cambridge.

Fixation (population genetics)

In population genetics, fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exists at least two variants of a particular gene (allele) in a given population to a situation where only one of the alleles remains.

Founder effect

In population genetics, the founder effect is the loss of genetic variation that occurs when a new population is established by a very small number of individuals from a larger population.

Genetic diversity

Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic characteristics in the genetic makeup of a species.

Genetic drift

Genetic drift (also known as allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect) is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms.

Genome

In the fields of molecular biology and genetics, a genome is the genetic material of an organism.

Mutation

In biology, a mutation is the permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA or other genetic elements.

Offspring

In biology, offspring are the young born of living organisms, produced either by a single organism or, in the case of sexual reproduction, two organisms.

Population

In biology, a population is all the organisms of the same group or species, which live in a particular geographical area, and have the capability of interbreeding.

Selective breeding

Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.

Speciation

Speciation is the evolutionary process by which populations evolve to become distinct species.

Natural selection and Population bottleneck Comparison

Natural selection has 333 relations, while Population bottleneck has 79. As they have in common 12, the Jaccard index is 2.91% = 12 / (333 + 79).
