Across
- 4. This takes place when individuals at one end of the curve have higher fitness than individuals in the middle or at the other end.
- 6. The _____ of an allele is the number of times that the allele occurs in a gene pool, compared with the number of times other alleles for the same gene occur.
- 11. The situation in which allele frequencies remain constant.
- 12. Traits that are controlled by two or more genes.
- 13. Change in allele frequencies as a result of the migration of a small subgroup of a small population.
- 14. The separation of species or populations so that they cannot interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
- 15. Consists of all genes, including all the different alleles, that are present in a population.
- 16. The form of reproductive isolation in which two populations reproduce at different times.
Down
- 1. trait A trait that is controlled by a single gene that has two alleles.
- 2. Random change in allele frequencies that occurs in small populations.
- 3. This principle states that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant unless one or more factors cause those frequencies to change.
- 5. The form of reproductive isolation in which two populations have differences in courtship rituals or other types of behavior that prevent them from interbreeding.
- 7. The formation of new species.
- 8. This takes place when individuals at the at the upper and lower ends of the curve have higher fitness than the individuals near the middle.
- 9. This takes place when individuals near the center of the curve have higher fitness than individuals at either end of the curve.
- 10. The form of reproductive isolation in which two populations are separated physically by geographic barriers such as rivers, mountains, or stretches of water
