Across
  1. 3. informs our understanding of a species oldest layers
  2. 4. eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes
  3. 6. is the transfer of genes between different individuals
  4. 8. an example of this is Sickle Cell Anemia against Malaria
  5. 9. is a long period of time when a population is uninterrupted
  6. 13. creation of new species
  7. 16. similar structures but different functions
  8. 19. inheritable trait/can be beneficial & favorable to the environment
  9. 20. Scientist who first made observations of natural selection
Down
  1. 1. whale hipbones and human apendix are examples of what?
  2. 2. this stops gene flow and can lead to speciation
  3. 5. uses carbon halflies to find an exact age
  4. 7. A Heritable change in characteristics within a population from one generation to the next
  5. 10. all organisms are related to one another
  6. 11. impact on small populations
  7. 12. This is how most species living today have been able to survive/strengthens or weakens inheritable traits
  8. 14. this process produces the most genetic variation within a species
  9. 15. same species,variation exist within a population
  10. 17. looking at layers in sedimentary rock
  11. 18. variety of living things that live on earth
