7F Other Evolutionary Mechanisms

_______________________ is the moving of genes from one population to another population of a species.

• Genetic Drift
• Gene Flow
• Recombination
• Speciation

__________________________acts on a population as a group and NOT on an individual member within that group.

• Adaptations
• Genetic Drift
• Gene Flow
• Natural Selection

A _______________________ consists of a group of individuals that belong to the same species and that live in a particular area.

• Community
• Niche
• Population
• None of the above

Gene flow happens as a result of _____________________, members of a population exchange genes with one another.

• Mating
• Speciation
• Recombination
• Gene Exchange

_______________________ is the process by which parts of homologous chromosomes are exchanged between on another.

• Mutation
• Reproduction
• Meiosis
• Recombination

Both mutations and recombination are responsible for the development of ____________ in and among species.

• Diversity
• Adaptations
• Niches
• Heredity
