Evolution
Across
- 5. a speciation occurs when there is a ecological barrier separating populations
- 8. a speciation occurs when there is physical barrier between populations
- 11. is evolution on a large scale
- 12. a type of mimicry when a venomous species resembles one another
- 14. is the change in groups of organisms over time
- 15. is the role that an organism has in it’s environment
Down
- 1. adaptations that organisms do to help them survive or reproduce
- 2. a structural adaption that enables species to blend in with their surroundings
- 3. adaptations that are changes in an organisms metabolic processes
- 4. is the idea that evolution occurs slowly due to the accumulation of small changes
- 6. is evolution on a small scale
- 7. a type of mimicry when a non-poisonous species resembles a poisonous species
- 9. is the theory that evolution occurs during rapid “jumps”
- 10. is a measure of their contribution to the gene pool of the next generation
- 13. adaptations that are physical features of organisms
