Adaptive Radiation - An evolutionary pattern in which many species evolve from a single ancestral species Allele - An alternative form of a gene. Allele Frequency - Number of times that an allele occurs in a gene pool in comparison to the total number of alleles allopatric speciation - The formation of new species in populations that are geographically isolated from one another. allopolyploidy - a species with multiple sets of chromosomes derived from different species Alpha (origination...

What is some evidence for endosymbiosis? - -Mitochondria replicate similar to binary fission -plastids have circular chromosomes -ribosomes are similar to prokayotes What is Hardy Weinburg equilibrium? - p^2 + 2pq+ q^2 =1 -If a population is at equilibrium, (percentages don't change) -No genetic drift, gene flow, no natural selection, no new alleles, no sexual selection -Genetic drift, gene flow, and natural selection cause most evolutionary change Acquired vs. Inherited traits - Acquire...

species - evolutionarily independent population or group of populations synapomorphy - a trait that is found in certain groups of organisms and their common ancestor, but is missing in more distant ancestors; identifies monophyletic groups; homologous traits that can be identified at the genetic, developmental, or structural level biological species concept - reproductive isolation between populations (they don't breed and don't produce viable, fertile offspring) - reproductive isolation...
