|
Gene Pool |
The total set of genes including all alleles that are present in a population |
|
|
Allele frequency |
Proportion of one allele compared with all the alleles for that trait in the gene pool |
|
|
Normal Distribution |
A distribution of numerical data whose graph forms a bell-shaped curve that is symmetrical about the mean |
|
|
Micro evolution |
Observable change in the allele frequencies of a population over a few generations |
|
|
Directional selection |
A natural selection process in which one genetic variation is selected and that causes a change in the overall genetic composition of the population |
|
|
Stabilizing selection |
A type of natural selection in which the average form of a trait is favored and becomes more common |
