BOTTLENECK VS FOUNDER EFFECT 2023
DESCRIPTION |
Bottleneck Effect |
Founder Effect |
Definition |
A sharp
reduction in population size, often due to a catastrophic event or intense
selection pressure. |
A small
group of individuals establishes a new population, resulting in reduced
genetic diversity. |
Cause |
Natural
disasters, disease outbreaks, human activities, or sudden environmental
changes. |
Migration,
isolation, colonization, or small group formation. |
Population
Size |
Significant
reduction in population size, leading to a small surviving population. |
Start
with a small founding population, which becomes the basis for a new
population. |
Effects
on Allele Frequencies |
Random
changes in allele frequencies due to genetic drift. Some alleles may be lost
or become more prevalent than before. |
Limited
number of alleles carried by the founding individuals, leading to a skewed
representation of the original population's genetic makeup. |
Genetic
Diversity |
Loss of
genetic variation due to the limited number of survivors, resulting in
decreased diversity and increased genetic drift. |
Limited
genetic diversity due to the small number of individuals in the founding
population. |
Examples |
The
cheetah population reduced drastically, leading to reduced genetic diversity. |
One
notable example of the founder effect in India is the Parsi community. The
Parsis are a small ethnic and religious group that migrated from Persia
(modern-day Iran) to the Indian subcontinent around the 8th century. They
settled mainly in the region of Gujarat, particularly in the city of Mumbai
(formerly Bombay).. |

All joints ...at a glance
Joint Type | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
Ball-and-Socket | Rounded end of one bone fits into a cup-shaped socket | Shoulder joint |
Hinge | Movement limited to a single plane (bending and straightening) | Elbow joint, knee joint |
Pivot | Allows rotation around a central axis | Atlas-axis joint (between the first two vertebrae in the neck) |
Gliding | Sliding or twisting motion between two flat surfaces | Wrist joint, ankle joint |
Saddle | Convex and concave surfaces fit together like a saddle | Thumb joint |
Condyloid | Oval-shaped end of one bone fits into an elliptical cavity | Wrist joint |
Synovial | Joint surrounded by a joint capsule filled with synovial fluid | Most joints in the body, such as the hip, shoulder, and knee |
Fibrous | Connected by fibrous connective tissue | Sutures of the skull |
Cartilaginous | Connected by cartilage | Intervertebral discs between vertebrae |
Fixed/Immovable | No movement allowed | Skull sutures |
