The bottleneck effect. The bottleneck effect is an extreme example of genetic drift that happens when the size of a population is severely reduced. Events like natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, fires) can decimate a population, killing most indviduals and leaving behind a small, random assortment of survivors.
There are two major types of genetic drift: population bottlenecks and the founder effect. A population bottleneck is when a population's size becomes very small very quickly. This is usually due to a catastrophic environmental event, hunting a species to near extinction, or habitat destruction.enetic drift is when chance events cause changes in frequencies of alleles in a population. Alleles are the genetic variations in a population, and they are the driving force behind the evolution of that population. The smaller the population, the greater the impact genetic drift will have.
