Week 5, Diversification

I think diversification is the natural state of any species. When there is a bottleneck in the genetic material, many times species either die out or evolve into some new form of that species. When diversification starts to decrease, especially due to the overproduction of one strain or the forced mating of particular animals, it would seem as though the entire population would suffer. Genetic material is being taken out of the genetic pool and not allowed to be distributed through out the population. If diversification was re-introduced, I don't know wether it would be able to save a dying species.
