ification
9. natural selection the process whereby organisms better adapted to their
environment tend to survive and produce more offspring
(acts on individuals but populations evolve)
10. homology same or similar relation

consists of all alleles for all loci (specific location of gene
on chromosome) in a population
16. allele frequency measure of relative frequency of an allele on a genetic
locus in a population (usually expressed as percentage)
17. Hardy-Weinberg 1. no mutation
Eqilibrium 2. natural selection not occurring
3. population is large
4. random mating
5. no gene flow
35. post-zygotic 1. reduced hybrid viability (impaired development or sur-
vival)
2. reduced hybrid fertility (sterile offspring)
3. hybrid breakdown (first generation fertile but later gen-
erations fail)
