Across
- 3. When two populations become separated by a physical barrier, such as rivers, mountains, or lake.
- 7. TWO separate species in different areas evolve to look or behave in a similar manner. Results in Analogous Structures.
- 8. Gene frequencies change as individuals move in or out of the population.
- 9. Natural selection gradually changes the average features of a species, making a new species.
- 11. Gene frequencies change as individuals move in or out of the population.
- 12. The original population splits into 2 isolated groups which begin to breed among themselves, and genetic changes accumulate over time
- 14. Organisms with the variation of a trait best suited for their environment will survive and reproduce.
Down
- 1. TWO species that have a partnership or symbiotic relationship evolve together to continue the relationship.
- 2. Occurs when 2 populations no longer interbreed.
- 4. When two populations become separated by a physical barrier, such as rivers, mountains, or lake.
- 5. two populations become isolated because they reproduce at different times or patterns.
- 6. ONE species evolves into two different species. Results in Homologous Structures.
- 10. equilibrium Periods of rapid speciation (formation of new species) followed by long periods of stasis (no change).
- 13. Pure chance causes a change in the gene pool of a population
