The meaning of the given words are as given below

Race It is a classification system used to categorise humans into large and distinct populations or groups by anatomical, cultural, linguistic, geographical, historical and for relegious relationship.

Breed It is a specific group of domestic animals or plants having homogenous appearance, homogenous behaviour and other characteristics that distinguish it from other animals or plants of the same species and that were arrived at through selective breeding.

Cultivar It is a plant or grouping of plants selected for desirable characteristics that can be maintained by propogation. 'Cultivar' stands for 'cultivated variety'.

Variety A variety arises naturally in the plant kingdom and plant grown from its seeds will typically come out true to type.

In the struggle for existence, the individuals which have more favourable variations will enjoy a competitive advantage over others which have less favourable or unfavourable variations.

They are considered fit and thus, will survive and reproduce. Such individuals produce more progeny (with more fit individuals) than others who are less adapted in that environment.

Characteristic criteria for designating a Mendelian population are

(i) Population must be sufficiently large.

(ii) Population must have potentialities for free flow of genetic material among individuals, through sexual reproduction.

(iii) Migration should either be nil or negligible.

The movement of individuals from one place to another is called migration. It can be the movement of individuals to a different populations (i.e., emigration) or movement of individual into a particular population (i.e., cmmigration) Migration may bring in more such alleles, that bestow upon the individuals, such adaptations or traits which are selected by nature. Thus, enhancing the effect of selection.

Similarly, emigration may lead to removal of such alleles that confer better adaptations. Immigration may also bring in those alleles which confer the traits that are not selected by nature, i.e., blurr the effects of selection.

Hence, it is justifiable to say that 'Migration may enhance or blurr the effects of selection.'

Hardy-Weinberg Principle states that the sum of allelic frequencies in a population is stable and is constant from generation to generation, i.e., the gene pool (total genes and their alleles in a population remains constant. This is called genetic equilibrium. The sum total of all the allelic frequencies is

Five factors that influence these values are

(i) Gene Migration or Gene Flow When migration of a section of population to another place occurs, gene frequencies change in the original as well as in the new population. New genes/alleles are added to the new population and these are lost from the old population. There would be gene flow if this gene migration, happens multiple times.

(ii) Genetic Drift It refers to the elimination of the genes of certain traits when a section of population migrates or dies of natural calamity. It is an evolutionary force operating in small populations whereby gene frequency changes by chance leadings to loss of some genes or gain of others irrespective of their selective advantages or disadvantages.

(iii) Mutation The sudden heritable change which is directionless in gene is called mutation. It alters the genetic frequency or genetic make up of an individual.

(iv) Genetic Recombination This phenomenon occurs during gamete formation when chromosomes pass from parents to offsprings which show new combination of characteristics.

(v) Natural Selection It is a phenomenon by which some members of population having traits that enable them to grow and reproduce at higher rater are favoured. Hence, they leave more surviving offspring in the next generation than others.
