Conventional war

Conventional war - a declared, direct armed conflict between organized armed forces of two or more states conducted using conventional weapons without the use of weapons of mass destruction.

Flow of genes

Gene flow - the spread of genes between populations. The flow of genes influences the level of variation in the gene pool, resulting from the migration of organisms. Representatives of a given species are randomly distributed randomly, ie unevenly within their range, ie they form groups. For example, frogs roaring from one pond create a distinct population for the population of the adjacent pond. Between the two ponds there is a slight exchange of individuals due to migration, but the probability of mating the frogs living in the same pond is much higher than that of the "frogs". Representatives of a species tend to create local populations, referred to as demos. Given that each dem is more or less genetically isolated from other populations of the species, the demy species exhibit some distinct genetic traits. The number of migrating individuals of different species depends on how they are propagated and spread. Migration of certain animals, eg birds, is obvious: this p...
