In Americа, the Amish cоmmunity wаs fоunded by а small grоup of settlers who left Europe in search of freedom from religious persescution. They established a population in Pennsylvania in the mid-1700's, and since then have remained relatively isolated from the non-Amish communities around them. As a result of this founder event, and subsequent inbreeding within the small, isolated community, the frequencies of certain alleles and phenotypes are very different in the Amish population compared to the surrounding non-Amish population. For example, the rate of dwarfism is very high among the Amish compared to non-Amish communities. Apply your knowledge of founder events and genetic drift to evolution within the Amish population: explain these concepts, and discuss why they resulted in the evolution of a high rate of dwarfism in today's Amish population.
