Across
- 2. branch of similar organisms on a cladogram
- 5. when an individual chooses a mate- not at random
- 7. similar looking structures
- 8. humans determine which traits are passed down
- 13. some of many small changes
- 15. life coming from other life
- 17. traveled on the Beagle and studied finches
- 18. one species quickly evolving into many species
- 19. individuals becoming less similar can lead to new species
- 22. used S neck flask to prove that bacteria was in the air
- 24. small population breaks off from main population and evolves faster
- 28. all the alleles of a population
- 29. another name for spontaneous generation
- 31. characteristic that is "used" becomes more pronounced in offspring
- 32. age of Earth
- 33. diagram that shows evolutionary changes
- 35. P + q = 1 is the equation for
- 36. two species so closely tied that if one changes the other species also will change
- 37. structures with similar functions
- 38. large population drops quickly and damages the gene pool even when the population returns to previous size
- 39. having to fight to survive
- 40. layers of rock near the surface are younger than deeper layers
- 42. thought giraffes stretched their neck to make them longer
- 44. uneven survival in environment due to variance in population
- 45. different songs are and example of this
- 46. when the gene pool stays the same
- 47. when the average phenotype has the highest fitness
Down
- 1. everything that has happened will happen again
- 3. when both extremes of a population have higher fitness than the average trait
- 4. all species do this due to competition
- 6. humans getting taller is an example
- 9. figured by looking at layer of rock a fossil is found in
- 10. change of a population/species to become more advanced
- 11. time needed for half an isotope to become stable
- 12. p2 +2pq + q2 + 1 is the equation for
- 14. studied butterflies and the Malay Archipelago
- 16. most recent common ancestor on a cladogram
- 20. number of a species in a place
- 21. different migration times are an example of this
- 23. disproved that maggots spontaneously arose from meat
- 25. when two dissimilar species become more alike due to environment
- 26. use radioactive isotopes to find this
- 27. any remnant of organism
- 30. using fossils to tell how tectonic plates moved
- 32. number of offspring that survive to have offspring
- 34. physical barriers between population
- 41. can add new alleles to gene pool
- 43. indiv. moving in or out of population
