Across
- 3. when humans breed for more exaggerated or desired traits
- 8. occurs when the allele frequencies in a population change
- 10. the process by which organisms become better matched to their environments
- 11. a random change in allele frequencies in a population
- 12. Cheetahs are an example of this type of genetic drift
- 14. evolution that occurs when two species evolve differently from a common ancestor
Down
- 1. states that if a population is not evolving, the frequencies of alleles and genotypes do not change across generations
- 2. evolution above the species level
- 4. a change in the allele frequencies found in a population
- 5. an alteration of the base-pair sequence of an individual’s DNA
- 6. similarity due to similar environmental pressures or natural selection
- 7. similarity due to a common ancestor
- 9. evolution that occurs when species have different ancestors but develop similar features due to similar selective pressures
- 13. known as the father of Evolutionary Theory
