  1. 2. selection - which includes sexual selection, is the fact that some traits make it more likely for an organism to survive and reproduce
  2. 6. - According to the neutral theory of molecular evolution, this number should be near
  3. 7. recombination - Mutations can involve large sections of DNA becoming duplicated, usually through
  4. 8. - is a problem for population genetic models that treat one gene locus at a time
  5. 9. drift - is a change in allele frequencies caused by random sampling
  6. 10. - means that the phenotypic and/or fitness effect of an allele at one locus depends on which alleles are present at other loci

  1. 1. synthesis - The mathematics of population genetics were originally developed as the beginning of the
  2. 3. - relates genetic diversity in a sample to demographic history of the population from which it was taken
  3. 4. - is the ultimate source of genetic variation in the form of new alleles
  4. 5. - means that the phenotypic and/or fitness effect of one allele at a locus depends on which allele is present in the second copy for that locus
