DEFINITION Evolution regards to population is the change in allele frequencies in a population over time
Gene
Micro evolution ,
or evolution on a small scale ,
is defined as a change in the frequency of gene variants , alleles ,

> A segment Of DNA that serves as a unit


in population over generation .

Of hereditary information

various alleles at all gene loci in individuals make up the gene pool of the population .

Population

> A group of organism of a single species


The gene pool is the set of all genes ,
or genetic information ,
in any population ,
usually of a particular species .

at a particular area at the same time .

Gene pool can be described in terms of allele frequencies .
