Disruptive selection

________ has phenotypic distribution entirely towards one phenotypic extreme.

New cards
3

Fossil records

________ show abrupt changes in a species with periods of ‘ extinction that are perceived to be periods of stasis under the theory of punctuated evolution.

New cards
4

rapid bursts

Punctuated equilibrium= when speciation occurs in short, ________ with periods of no change in between.

New cards
5

Low genetic variation

________ /diversity implies that if one organism of such a population is vulnerable to a disease, the entire population is also vulnerable.

New cards
6

Gene

________ pool= the combination of all alleles of a trait for a species.

New cards
7

meiosis

Occurs when ________ does not occur correctly and the chromosomes are unable to be divided into two haploid gametes, and instead produce one diploid gamete by hybridization.

8

Behavioral isolation

________= differences in mating behaviors that for two population.

New cards
9

Sympatric speciation

________= occurs w /out a geographic barrier.

New cards
10

Temporal isolation

________= differences in mating times for two different populations.

New cards
11

Speciation

________ is the development of different species.

New cards
12

Gradualism

________= when speciation occurs gradually over time.

New cards
