| 9374798241 | Evolution | Change in the gene pool over time Is: -Seen in populations and generations, not individuals -The result of interactions of living organisms in living systems with other life and the environment -On going process that never ends Isn't: -A change of species into a different species -Organisms do not change, populations change -A force with a purpose | 0 | |
| 9374798242 | Gene Pool | All the alleles for the given population | 1 | |
| 9374798243 | Hardy-Weinberg Equation | Equation used to calculate the genetic variation of a population at equilibrium. p + q =1 p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1 p= AA 2pq= Aa q= aa | 2 | |
| 9374798246 | Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium | -Large Population -Random Mating -No mutation -No gene flow -No natural selection | 3 | |
| 9374798247 | Why allele frequencies change (5 fingers of Evolution) | -Small population -Specific mating -Mutations -Gene flow -Natural selection | 4 | |
| 9374798248 | Genetic Drift | Both the Bottleneck Effect and the Founder Effect, where a population goes from large to small | 5 | |
| 9374798249 | Bottleneck Effect | Catastrophic event changes large population to small |  | 6 |
| 9374798250 | Founder Effect | When Individuals create a new population |  | 7 |
| 9374798251 | Gene Flow | Immigration and Emigration | 8 | |
| 9374798252 | Mutations | Change in nucleic acids and copying, change to the DNA | 9 | |
| 9374798253 | Natural Selection | Survival and reproduction of individuals due to their differences in phenotype, and the environment around them -like the peppered moth lab and ladybug experiment Is: -A process of editing than a creative mechanism Isn't: -A force or action, but a description of what happens -Does not involve a design or purpose | 10 | |
| 9374798254 | Species | A group of organisms that can mate with each other and have fertile offspring | 11 | |
| 9374798255 | Speciation | When a new species develops from a previous species -comes from reproductive isolation | 12 | |
| 9374798256 | Reproductive Isolation | The inability of a species to breed successfully with related species 5 main types: -Habitat Isolation -Behavioral Isolation -Temporal Isolation -Mechanical Isolation -Gametic Isolation | 13 | |
| 9374798257 | Habitat Isolation | Where an animal is geographically isolated or virtually geographically isolated | 14 | |
| 9374798258 | Behavioral Isolation | Mating may not occur if the female is not looking for what the male is offering in looks or action | 15 | |
| 9374798259 | Temporal Isolation | Time is not coordinated, If the days, months , or years for mating are not the same | 16 | |
| 9374798260 | Mechanical Isolation | Where the parts just don't fit | 17 | |
| 9374798261 | Gametic Isolation | Some molecular attractant action going on with gametes and so they don't hook up | 18 | |
| 9374798262 | Allopatric Speciation | Speciation takes place in geographically different areas. | 19 | |
| 9374798263 | Sympatric Speciation | Speciation takes place in the same geographic area | 20 | |
| 9374798264 | Fitness | The reproductive success of the individuals and or the population, the more offspring produced that also survive and reproduce, the greater the fitness | 21 | |
| 9374798266 | Artificial Selection | Humans are deliberately choosing the traits and then breeding them Ex- Wild mustard seed plant makes cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. | 22 | |
| 9374798267 | Directional Selection | Conditions favor individuals exhibiting one extreme of a phenotypic range, Common when the environment changes |  | 23 |
| 9374798268 | Disruptive Selection | Occurs when conditions favor individuals at both extremes of a phenotypic range, An environment with two possible niches. |  | 24 |
| 9374798269 | Stabilizing Selection | Acts against the extremes of the phenotypic ranges, and favors the intermediate range. |  | 25 |
| 9374798270 | Sickle Cell Disease | SS= All cells are sickled- death NS= Half normal, half sickled, resistant to malaria NN= All normal, no resistance to malaria | 26 | |
| 9374798271 | Homologous Structures | Body parts that resemble one another in different species because they have evolved from a common ancestor | 27 | |
| 9374798272 | Analogous Structures | Body parts that have similar functions in different species but which have different genes and development in forming the parts | 28 | |
| 9374798273 | Vestigial Structures | Structures that are greatly reduced in form and function because they are not being used | 29 | |
| 9374798274 | Divergent Evolution and Adaptive Radiation | Species that had a common ancestor diverge from each other in that there are increasing accumulating changes different from each other over time | 30 | |
| 9374798275 | Convergent Evolution | Describes two unrelated species that share similar traits | 31 | |
| 9374798276 | Adaption | Any alteration in the structure or function of an organism or any of its parts that results from natural selection and by which the organism becomes better fitted to survive and multiply in its environment. | 32 | |
| 9374798278 | Phylogenetic Tree | A branching diagram that shows the evolutionary history of organisms and groups evolutionary similar species together |  | 33 |
