Inbreeding becomes an issue for populations because....

• mutations increase in the population due to non-random breeding.

• heterozygosity decreases in the population due to non-random breeding.

• homozygous recessive genotypes increase in the population because of non-random breeding.

• deleterious alleles are expressed more because of non-random breeding.

This causes mutations.

• Natural selection

• Gene flow

• Genetic Drift

• Mutation

• Inbreeding
