An example of genetic drift is the bottleneck effect, which occurs when a significant portion of a population is suddenly reduced due to an event such as a natural disaster. This reduction can lead to a loss of genetic diversity, as the surviving population may not represent the genetic makeup of the original population. Over time, the genes of the remaining individuals become more prevalent, potentially altering the population's genetic structure significantly.
