The combined alleles of all the individuals in a population are called the gene pool. It refers to different types of genes that exist within an interbreeding population, i.e. the organisms that mate with each other, with the same type of organism, within the same population.
A gene pool is the collection of all alleles in a population, representing its genetic diversity. It is crucial for understanding evolution and the adaptability of species. The varying alleles contribute to the population's ability to survive environmental changes.
