Across
- 6. It's when a species is still valid today and is an anti-synonym of extinct.
- 10. The haploid set of chromosomes in a gamete or microorganism, or in each cell of a multicellular organism.
- 11. Animals that migrate do not return to the land they left.
- 12. It's the transfer of genetic material from one population to another.
- 13. It's a variation of the same sequence of nucleotides at the same place on a long DNA molecule, as described in leading textbooks on genetics and evolution.
- 16. It's the separation of the members of a population and it happens when an avidity is divided by new formations.
- 17. When individuals of intermediate phenotype are less fit than those of superior and inferior phenotypes, thus favoring the extremes.
- 18. Called an island group or island chain, is a chain, group, or collection of islands, or sometimes a sea containing a small number of scattered islands.
- 19. When an animal leaves their home because the habitat is no longer ideal for them and they need to find a more suitable environment.
- 20. when individuals with traits on one side of the mean in their population survive better or reproduce more than those on the other.
Down
- 1. The inability of a species to reproduce successfully with related species due to geographic, behavioral, physiological, or genetic differences.
- 2. It's the complete disappearance of a species from the earth, that is, species of plants or animals that no longer exist on this planet.
- 3. It's variation in the relative frequency of different genotypes in a small population.
- 4. It's the rapid diversification of a single lineage into many species that inhabit a variety of environments or use a variety of resources and differ in traits required to exploit these.
- 5. It's the condition of an allele or genotype in a gene pool where the frequency does not change from generation to generation.
- 7. When two or more species reproduce at different times.
- 8. It's a type of natural selection in which genetic diversity decreases as the population stabilizes at a particular trait value.
- 9. The combination of all the genes present in a reproducing population or species.
- 14. It's the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change.
- 15. It's the relative frequency of an allele at a particular locus in a population, expressed as a fraction or percentage.
