Across
- 3. refers to how common an allele is in a population
- 5. is a random change in allele frequencies due to luck and not fitness. Examples: Landslide or a flyswatter.
- 6. within a species can be graphed as a bell curv
- 7. structure This is a structure of different species that are similar in function but not necessarily in structure. Examples include: Wings on a bat, bird, and insect
- 9. Also known as selective breeding, this is a human intervention in an animal or plant reproduction to allow any individuals with desired traits to be produced.
- 13. The process of making a new species.
- 14. A type of adaptation that allows organisms to blend into their environment.
- 15. is the total genetic diversity found within a population or a species.

- 1. radiation This is a pattern of evolution in which a closely related group starts to slowly evolve over time. An example of this type of pattern is Darwin's finches.
- 2. the process by which organisms slowly adapt and change over time due to their surroundings.
- 4. The evolution of a new species by gradual accumulation of small genetic changes over a long period of time.
- 8. is the variety of life on Earth.
- 10. Known for his idea of natural selection.
- 11. s a type of adaptation where a species evolves to resemble another species. Example: Viceroy and the Monarch butterfly.
- 12. The branch of biology that studies embryos and their development.
