Natural Selection
Across
- 1. alleles of a population change due to immigration in or out of a population
- 4. most individuals in a population die and the ones who survive determine future allele f frequencies
- 6. theoretical scenario providing no evolution
- 7. characteristics organisms have to help them be better suited for their environment
- 9. a phenotype is directly selected for towards one pole
- 12. organisms mutate due to radiation
- 13. organisms are more likely to reproduce because they have an advantage in
- 14. the study of evolution through the form of past or present taxonomic groups
- 15. first genetic material
- 17. two poles of a phenotype are selected for in a population
- 18. all of the alleles in a population
Down
- 1. due to a random chance that changes allele frequencies
- 2. most of a species dies off in a relatively short period
- 3. isolated individuals have their genetic makeup become dominant in a new population
- 5. individuals best adapted to the environment will survive
- 6. the scenario suck as with sickle-cell anemia and malaria when the person with an allele for each the dominant and recessive has the highest fitness
- 8. the study of changes in allele frequencies in populations
- 10. voyaged on the HMS Beagle/called evolution decent with modification
- 11. extreme phenotypes are not selected for in a population
- 16. the likelihood an organism will reproduce
