Explain the founder effect and bottleneck effect.
Founder - population migrate to new isolated area. Bottleneck - rapid decrease in pop due to disaster/human activity. Both cause change in allele frequency

There is a population of beetles found in a specific deciduous forest. A few of these beetles end up in a different deciduous forest and are able to reproduce. This causes the frequencies of alleles to change. What effect is this?
Genetic Drift - Founder Effect

All species, living or not, were derived from a common ancestor linked by a single tree of life is known as whar?
Descent with modification/common descent. Concept where all species are thought to have been derived from one ancestor/origin
