Genetic Drift
A random change in allele frequency is called genetic drift.

Genetic Drift
In small populations, individuals that carry a particular allele may leave more descendants than other individuals do, just by chance.
Over time, a series of chance occurrences of this type can cause an allele to become common in a population.

Genetic Drift
Genetic drift may occur when a small group of individuals colonizes a new habitat.
Individuals may carry alleles in different relative frequencies than did the larger population from which they came.
The new population will be genetically different from the parent population.

Genetic Drift
When allele frequencies change due to migration of a small subgroup of a population it is known as the founder effect.
