This post will go through the relationship between genetic diversity and extinction for QCE Biology.
4.2.3 – Speciation and Macroevolution
- Explain how populations with reduced genetic diversity (i.e. those affected by population bottlenecks) face an increased risk of extinction

This video will go through the relationship between genetic diversity and extinction.
This video will go through the importance of genetic diversity in a little more detail.
This video looks at an example of how genetic diversity can save species.
