Anatomy and Evolution
Across
- 5. a shared ancestor of two or more species.
- 8. a genetically determined characteristic.
- 9. an allele that will only express itself if found as a pair.
Down
- 1. a similar structure found in different species, which is evidence that they shared a common ancestor.
- 2. an allele that will always express itself.
- 3. variations of a gene.
- 4. structures that function similarly, but do not come from a common ancestor.
- 6. a random change within a gene.
- 7. organisms who are more fit will survive and reproduce.
