The gene pool - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

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...

Bio 181 - Evolution Origin of Species - correct answer Descent with modification, natural selection, evolutionary adaptation, and evolution are the key components of this work by Charles Darwin. Descent with modification - correct answer Organisms related through descent from an ancestor. Natural selection - correct answer A population can change over time if individuals that possess certain traits leave more offspring than others. It is considered non-random because it deals with whateve...

Gene pool all of the alleles of all the genes in a certain population Hardy-weinberg principle genotype frequencies in a large population do not change from generation to generation in the absence of evolutionary processes Claims of hardy-weinberg principle (1) if the frequencies of alleles a1 and a2 in a population are given by p and q, then the frequencies of genotypes a1a1, a1a2, a2a2 will be given by p^2, 2pq, and q^2 for generation after generation. (2) when alleles are transmitted via me...
