1. Speciose

• when there are few members of a species in a genus

• when there are an average amount of members of a species in a genus

• 1. when there are many members of a species in a genus

• when there are no members of a species in a genus, in a certain area

Australopiths

• genus of early hominins existing during the Holocene

• genus of early hominins existing during the early Pleistocene

• genus of early hominins existing during the Miocene

• genus of early hominins existing during the Pliocene

Morphological Diversity

• phenotypic range within a certain population family

• phenotypic range within a certain phylum

• phenotypic range within a certain kingdom

• phenotypic range within a certain population

1. Diversifying Selection

• 1. When extreme values for a trait are favored over intermediate values

• 1. When all traits are favored

• 1. When no traits are favored

• 1. When intermediate values for a trait are favored over extreme values

Neutral Mutation

• change in the genetic sequence with a positive measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with no measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with a negative measurable effect

Deleterious Mutation

• change in the genetic sequence with a positive measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with no measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with a negative measurable effect

Adaptive Mutation

• change in the genetic sequence with a positive measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with no measurable effect

• change in the genetic sequence with a negative measurable effect

Locus/-i

• point on a genetic marker at which transcription start

• point on a chromosome where a gene or genetic marker breaks off

• point on a chromosome where a gene or genetic marker is placed

• point on a genetic marker at which translation starts

Genetic Drift

• Has little to no impact on evolution

• Is a random process

• Is the change in frequency of a gene's appearance in a population

• Is a driver of evolution

Supergenes

• Stay on the same chromosome to stay together during meiosis

• Stay on the same chromosome to stay together during metaphase

• Stay on the different chromosomes to separate during meiosis

• are always on exons
