A back mutation
B founder effect
C mutation
D heterozygote advantage
E genetic drift
F natural selection
G gene flow
H genetic diversity
I. bottleneck effect
J nonrandom mating
degree of variation within a species or a population
permanent change in the DNA molecule; a change in nucleotide sequence; gene position, gene loss, insertions, deletions, etc.; has the potential to affect an entire gene pool.
net movement of alleles from one population to another due to migration of individuals and subsequent interbreeding
mate selection during breeding based on phenotype strength speed, aggressiveness; also caused by inbreeding
loss of alleles from a gene pool as a result of some individuals not breeding; a change in allele frequencies due to chance events in small populations
gene pool change that results from a rapid decrease in population size
gene pool change that occurs when a few individuals start a new, isolated population such as on an island
only process that leads directly to evolutionary adaptation; individuals with certain inheritable traits survive specific local environmental conditions, and through reproduction, pass their traits on to offspring
for example; the genotype Cc in cystic fibrosis may help resist diarrheal diseases such as cholera
mutation that reverses the effects of former mutations
