Evolution
Across
- 4. Whales and fish are an example of this type of evolution pattern.
- 5. Selecting a mate based upon desired traits.
- 6. This type of evolution pattern is responsible for the hummingbird's long tongue and the cardinal flower's thin tube shaped petals.
- 9. This type of natural selection pattern may quickly gives rise to two new species; both extreme phenotypes are favored by the environment.
- 10. If a species does not genetically adapt to the environment, they may go ___.
- 11. Moths and this animal have evolved in response to one another's adaptations.
- 13. This type of isolation prevent breeding due to the reproductive parts no longer fitting together.
- 16. Galapagos finches are an example of this evolution pattern.
- 17. Type of speciation that occurs as a result of a physical barrier preventing interbreeding of the two populations.
Down
- 1. Could result from a natural disaster dramatically reducing the population size.
- 2. A random change in allele frequencies that occur in small populations.
- 3. Zebra and lion speed increase as a result of this type of evolution pattern.
- 7. Supported by homologous structures, species that have evolved through this pattern share a common ancestor.
- 8. Human birth weight and head size is a result of this type of selection pattern.
- 12. Type of speciation that occurs due to pre-zygotic reproductive isolation modes.
- 14. The result of two species breeding, often sterile.
- 15. Speciation always begins with this.
