Across
  1. 2. state of genetic equilibrium characterized by a large population, no migration, no natural selection, no mutations, and random mating
  2. 4. individuals with the average phenotype have an advantage and the extremes are selected against
  3. 11. isolation of a population due to differences in the timing of mating
  4. 12. migration of new individuals into a population
  5. 13. the idea that those individuals best suited to their environment will achieve higher fitness
  6. 14. when a small part of a population is separated from the rest and colonizes a new area
  7. 16. individuals at either extreme of the bell curve achieve higher fitness and the average is selected against
  8. 17. selection within a population due to human interference and selection of desired traits
  9. 18. refers to the differences among individuals in a population
  10. 19. describes the movement of genes/alleles/individuals between two neighboring populations
Down
  1. 1. isolation of a population due to differences in communication, mating rituals, or other behaviors
  2. 3. when a population experiences a rapid, drastic reduction in the number of individuals in the population
  3. 5. collection of all the alleles present in a population
  4. 6. individuals with one extreme phenotype have an advantage and the other extreme is selected against
  5. 7. any characteristic that increases the fitness of an individual
  6. 8. random changes in allele frequencies attributed to luck, not fitness
  7. 9. isolation of a population due to physical barriers
  8. 10. percent of individuals of a population that have a particular trait
  9. 14. measurement of the ability of an individual to survive and reproduce successful offspring
  10. 15. migration of individuals out of a population
