Module 14-15
Across
- 6. selection where humans breed something in order to give it specific traits
- 7. the effect that happens when there is a change in the genetic composition of a population as a result of descending from a small number of colonizing individuals
- 10. when all the animals of a species die
- 11. evolution that gives rise to new species, genera, families, classes, or phyla (ex. monkeys became humans theory)
- 12. selection that involves survival of the fittest
- 13. a trait that improves an individual's fitness
- 15. a set of traits expressed by an individual
- 16. the complete set of genes in an individual
Down
- 1. a change in the genetic composition of a population over time as a result of random mating
- 2. the number of species in a given area
- 3. the effect that happens when genetic diversity of a species is reduced as a result of a reduction in it's size
- 4. the branching pattern of evolutionary relationships
- 5. evolution below the species level
- 8. a change in the genetic composition of a population over time
- 9. a random change in the genetic code produced by a mistake in the copying process
- 14. an individual's ability to survive and reproduce
