QuestionAnswer
an example of natural selection would be: darwin's finches
mutations aren't always a bad thing. sometimes they can help the organism to ___________ to their environment. adapt
true or false: organisms evolve. false, populations can evolve but not a single organism.
adaption is a big part of evolution. why? because it helps a organism become well fit for its anvironment so it won't be killed off.
name the five conditions of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. 1) no mutations. 2)random mating. 3)no natural selection. 4)no genetic drift. 5)no gene flow.
prezygotic barrier means.. before fertilization
mutations introduce what to a population? variations
what does this describe? when an organism leaves to be somewhere alse and takes it's genes with them; leaving the gene pool to no longer be 50/50. gene flow
genetic drift happens in what kind of population and what is it? large; organism with disadvantage dies or gets eaten.
selective breeding means.. the organism searches for something in particular in the opposite sex.
habitat isolation: two animals living in different habitats that never meet, therefore never breed.
hybrid breakdown: when two hybrids breed and produce offspring that is so bad off, it's a waste.
when two species have a different mating season, this is called: temporal isolation
reduced hybrid viability: the hybrid organism is not near as strong as a non-hybrid organism.
when the hybrid is strong and "normal" but barren, is know as: reduced hybrid fertility
