Biology
Across
- 3. a group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or interbreeding
- 7. evolutionary change within a species or small group of organisms, especially over a short period
- 10. the influence of closely associated species on each other in their evolution.
- 11. is the transfer of genetic variation from one population to another.
- 12. is a group of linked ideas intended to explain something and have evidence to prove it.
- 13. the state or process of a species, family, or larger group being or becoming extinct
Down
- 1. variation in the relative frequency of different genotypes in a small population
- 2. is the change of characteristics of a species over time
- 4. is a change in a DNA sequence.
- 5. also called cryptic coloration, is a defense or tactic that organisms use to disguise their appearance
- 6. sharp lowering of a population's gene pool because of an environment
- 8. the close external resemblance of an animal or plant (or part of one) to another animal, plant, or inanimate object.
- 9. is the process whereby groups from the same common ancestor evolve and accumulate differences,
