- 2. it's the heritable condition of having more than two complete sets of chromosomes. This is more common among plants.
- 3. it's something that is steady and the same, for example living things maintain body conditions like temp to be able to survive.
- 5. it's how a new type of a living organism such as plants and animal species is created, this happens when groups in a species become isolated and diverge
- 6. Selection, its when individuals with traits on one side of the phenotypic range survive better or reproduce more than the the other ones on the the other side.
- 8. Selection, this is the process by which the population of living organisms adapt and change depends on their environment.
- 11. the evolved resemblance of a species acting as ——— to living organisms or non living model.
- 12. when a DNA gene is damaged or it could be changed in any way to alter the genetic message thats carried by that gene
- 13. is when species become dying, giving the opportunities for new species to emerge
- 15. Evolution, this is when different organisms each evolve similar traits to adapt similar necessities.
- 16. drift, it’s a mechanism of evolution in which the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population because of any chance
- 19. it’s the colour that animals have to blend in with their environment to help them survive from predators and to help them hunt for food.
- 20. a system of moral principles, this is how people make decisions and lead their behaviours
- 21. is the study of organisms
- 23. Evolution, type of evolution in which organisms are thought to have similar traits to adapt similar necessities
- 25. a chemical name for the molecule that Carrie’s genetic instructions in all living things
- 26. factors, factors of living things in their environment such as plants, fish and algae
Down
- 1. Frequency, represents the incidence of a gene variation in a population.
- 4. is collection and recording data thats happening and could be during and experiment
- 6. key, tool thats allows the user to determine the identity of items in the natural world
- 7. Adaptation, this is an animal behaviour usually in response to some type external stimulus in order to survive.
- 9. when living organisms reproduce successfully and also reflects how well an organism is adapted to its environment
- 10. Flow, this is a successful transfer of genetic material from one population to another.
- 14. changes that happen at the molecular level in organisms over a period of time.
- 16. basic physical and functional unit of heredity
- 17. Equilibrium, it's a condition in which a gene pool is constant, not changing in frequency from generation to generation.
- 18. is something that could be changed or controlled during an experiment
- 22. Isolation, this is when two populations are separated by rivers, mountains, and bodies of water
- 24. when a living thing developers and increases in physical shape and size
