Unit 6 biology
Across
- 5. change in allele frequencies as a result of the migration of a small subgroup of a population
- 7. Ability of an animal to look like another more harmful animal
- 9. A change in the allele frequency of a population as a result of chance events rather than natural selection
- 12. favors individuals at both extremes of the phenotypic range
- 14. how often a form of a gene appears in a gene pool
- 16. Natural selection that favors intermediate variants by acting against extreme phenotypes
- 18. Form of reproductive isolation in which two populations have differences in courtship rituals
- 19. A trait that helps an organism survive and reproduce
- 20. Migration to a new location
Down
- 1. movement of individuals out of an area
- 2. All the genes
- 3. form of reproductive isolation in which two populations reproduce at different times
- 4. form of reproductive isolation in which two populations are separated physically by geographic barriers such as rivers, mountains, or stretches of water
- 6. A process in which individuals that have certain inherited traits tend to survive and reproduce
- 8. occurs when natural selection favors one of the extreme variations of a trait
- 10. A change in allele frequency following a dramatic reduction in the size of a population
- 11. movement of alleles from one population to another
- 13. Differences among individuals in the composition of their genes or other DNA segments
- 15. Ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment
- 17. A group of individuals that belong to the same species and live in the same area
