genetic drift video assignment
Create a video simulation which models genetic drift. Your video needs to illustrate both the bottleneck effect and the founder effect. You need to narrate the video to explain both of the processes involved and how they result in genetic drift. 25 pts.
Your video should be similar to the one posted on my youtube channel #77. Watch this first to get an idea what I am looking for. The most important thing here is to demonstrate understanding of the founder effect and the bottleneck effect.
