In this kingdom the organisms are unicellular and are more ancient than bacteria, but are closely related to Eukaryotes. They can live in extreme environments like hot spring.

This kingdom can be multicellular and unicellular. It is both heterotroph and autotroph and they are all Eukaryotes.

Process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype.

Stabilizing Selection

Most common form of natural selections in which organisms with organisms with extreme expressions of a trait are removed. Can be expressed on a graph.

Shift of population toward an extreme version of a beneficial trait. Can be expressed on a graph.

Process by which individuals with average traits are removed, creating two populations with extreme traits. Can be expressed on graph.

The process through which species change over time.

The formation of new and distinct species in the course of evolution.

Groups of actually or potentially interbreeding populations, which are reproductively isolated from other such groups.

The term means to "cooperate inside", two small cells (Mitochondria and Chloroplast) were engulfed by a much larger cell, which became beneficial to the cells.

The transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another.

permanent change in a cell's DNA, ranging from changes in a single base pair to deletions of large sections of chromosomes.

Occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population.

The most recent ancestral form or species from which two different species evolved.

Process by which an animal or plant species becomes fitted to its environment; it is the result of natural selection's acting upon heritable variation.

Genetic Recombination

the process or act of exchange of genes between chromosomes, resulting in a different genetic combination.

mating between individuals of a species where the choice of partner is not influenced by the genotypes.

A hierarchical system for classifying and identifying organism.

This kingdom is a autotrophic eukaryote, have cell walls, and are not motile.

In this kingdom the organisms are unicellular or Multicellular organisms. They absorb nutrients from other organisms; an example is a mushroom.

Reproductive Isolation

Occurs when members of a population no longer interbreed.

Natural Selection	Process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype.
Stabilizing Selection	Most common form of natural selections in which organisms with organisms with extreme expressions of a trait are removed. Can be expressed on a graph.
Direction Selection	Shift of population toward an extreme version of a beneficial trait. Can be expressed on a graph.
Disruptive Selection	Process by which individuals with average traits are removed, creating two populations with extreme traits. Can be expressed on graph.
Evolution	The process through which species change over time.
Speciation	The formation of new and distinct species in the course of evolution.
Species	Groups of actually or potentially interbreeding populations, which are reproductively isolated from other such groups.
Endosymbiotic Theory	The term means to "cooperate inside", two small cells (Mitochondria and Chloroplast) were engulfed by a much larger cell, which became beneficial to the cells.
Gene Flow	The transfer of alleles or genes from one population to another.
Mutations	permanent change in a cell's DNA, ranging from changes in a single base pair to deletions of large sections of chromosomes.
Founder Effect	Occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population.
Common Ancestor	The most recent ancestral form or species from which two different species evolved.
Adaptation	Process by which an animal or plant species becomes fitted to its environment; it is the result of natural selection's acting upon heritable variation.
