Across
- 2. Isolation, this is when two populations are separated by rivers, mountains, and bodies of water
- 4. is the study of organisms
- 10. Pool, this is how much genetic diversity is found within a population of living organisms or species.
- 11. Frequency, represents the incidence of a gene variation in a population.
- 14. its an educated guess and this guess is testable
- 17. Method, it's a procedure used to answer a scientific question.
- 18. when a DNA gene is damaged or it could be changed in any way to alter the genetic message thats carried by that gene
- 19. factors, factors of living things in their environment such as plants, fish and algae
- 24. is when species become dying, giving the opportunities for new species to emerge
- 25. when a living thing developers and increases in physical shape and size
- 26. variable, its a variable that you change or control during a scientific experiment
- 29. key, tool thats allows the user to determine the identity of items in the natural world
- 31. Selection, this is the process by which the population of living organisms adapt and change depends on their environment.
- 32. the evolved resemblance of a species acting as ——— to living organisms or non living model.
- 34. a system of moral principles, this is how people make decisions and lead their behaviours
- 35. when living organisms reproduce successfully and also reflects how well an organism is adapted to its environment
- 37. is something that could be changed or controlled during an experiment
- 39. is an explanation that is widely accepted because it is supported by evidence after finishing a scientific experiment
- 40. any living thing that is made up of one or more cells
Down
- 1. Adaptation, this is an animal behaviour usually in response to some type external stimulus in order to survive.
- 2. basic physical and functional unit of heredity
- 3. Evolution, this is when different organisms each evolve similar traits to adapt similar necessities.
- 5. is collection and recording data thats happening and could be during and experiment
- 6. this is known as the difference between two living organisms of a species.
- 7. changes that happen at the molecular level in organisms over a period of time.
- 8. variable, its a variable that you don’t change or do anything to during scientific experiment
- 9. 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
- 12. it's something that is steady and the same, for example living things maintain body conditions like temp to be able to survive.
- 13. this is the process when different life organisms change or grow from earlier forms or from past organisms.
- 15. is something that you react to, such as your body reacting to a medicine that you took.
- 16. Evolution, type of evolution in which organisms are thought to have similar traits to adapt similar necessities
- 20. 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.
- 21. 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
- 22. of View, the maxim view you see through a microscope
- 23. Flow, this is a successful transfer of genetic material from one population to another.
- 27. it's the heritable condition of having more than two complete sets of chromosomes. This is more common among plants.
- 28. when an ancient organism leaves traces of its shape of something or fossils can be the preserved remains.
- 30. its the information that is gathered during an experiment
- 33. a chemical name for the molecule that Carrie’s genetic instructions in all living things
- 36. 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.
- 38. Equilibrium, it's a condition in which a gene pool is constant, not changing in frequency from generation to generation.
