Across
  1. 3. – Evolutionary history and relationships among species.
  2. 4. -This refers to the proportion of a specific allele (variant of a gene) within a population's gene pool
  3. 7. – Estimation of evolutionary timescales based on mutation rates.
  4. 9. – Random changes in allele frequencies in a population.
  5. 10. –the effect that refers to a sharp reduction in population size causing genetic diversity loss.
  6. 11. – Long-term interaction between different species, often mutually beneficial.
  7. 12. -This refers to evolutionary changes within a population or species over a relatively short period of time
  8. 14. – Movement of genes between populations through migration.
Down
  1. 1. – Reciprocal evolutionary changes between interacting species.
  2. 2. – the effect which refers to genetic variation resulting from a small group establishing a new population.
  3. 3. – The idea that evolution occurs in rapid bursts rather than gradually.
  4. 5. – Environmental factors that influence reproductive success.
  5. 6. – Anatomical similarities due to shared ancestry.
  6. 8. – The rapid evolution of multiple species from a common ancestor.
  7. 13. – A diagram depicting evolutionary relationships.
