During gene regulation this occurs
Similar, but altruist focus on providing for the group at a cost instead of both getting the same benefits. However, altruists expect to be returned the favor in the future.
Mutation can occur during transposon movement
Both cause genetic diversity
Mating with different populations leads to
Traits not seen can still be passed on
Sex often leads to mutation during gene cross over
Two different species work together for each other's benefit to increase their fitness
Successful bacteria are able to share genes with other bacteria via HGT
Natural selection leads to surviving and then mating
Based on whether KIN share the same variation can determine whether this selection is active
Variation at the group level determines group selection
Enough variation determines what is considered a new species.
Too much variation caused by geographic, physiological or genetic barrier lead to this isolation
Variation is the primary factor for natural selection
Variation occurs in every population
Genetics control embryonic development
Female choose mates, or males compete for mates
Based on whether how the group selection favors specific traits within the group will lead to success and the passing of the favored genes.
Recombination occurs before to sex, but can be passed onto offspring
Gonads control specific embryonic development to prevent selfish genes from messing things up.
These unseen traits can lead to more variation
Leads to Variation
1) Intersexual selection - chosen between opposite sexes 2) Intrasexual selection - competition between same sexes
An indicator on what is considered a new species
Occurs during transcription, translation and post-translation
If this mutualism is heritable it can be passed onto offspring
Mutations are goal oriented and not random
Occurs in DNA methylation, histone modification and noncoding RNA action
Passing down cultural traits
Leads to variation
Leads to variation
Kin selection helps an organisms kin to be successful and produce offspring and pass on genes.
Leads to Variation
Traits disappear with a population
Can be beneficial or detrimental, but still leading to variation
Leads to Variation
Different populations mating leads to more variation

Population
. Group of a specific organisms in a given environment

Variation
. Different alleles and traits in a population that can reduce or increase fitness

Natural Selection
. An organism's fitness to the environment. Higher fitness equals more offspring.

Sex
. The trading of DNA between males and females

Random Mutation
. A mutation on an allele that can be beneficial or detrimental to the organism. Random chance.

Genetic Recombination
. The crossing over of DNA during meiosis produces change and variation in the offspring's DNA. Mutations can occur during this time

Transposons
. Jumping alleles that can copy themselves multiple times on a DNA chain

Particulate Inheritance
. Unseen alleles that still exist in a population that can see resurgence in a population

Gene Flow
. Movement of DNA into or out of population

Horizontal Gene Transfer
. Bacteria share DNA through the environment and is directly taken and placed onto DNA

Mutualism
. Separate species working together for each other's survival

Altruism
. When an individual performs an action that is costly to itself in order to benefit another. But does the cost out way the benefit determines this behavior.

Reproductive Isolation
. Species inability to breed successfully

Speciation
. Distinct species in the course of evolution

Group Selection
. Groups of organisms are affected by natural selection instead of individuals.

Kin Selection
. Organisms are more likely to behave altruistically to kin or siblings that share DNA.

Sexual Selection
. Females choosing mates

Genetic Drift
. Alleles disappear as other one's become more prevalent in a population

Cultural Transmission
. The transmission of cultural traditions

Epigenetics
. Changes in phenotypes that do not change the DNA sequence.

Development
. Genes control embryonic development

Gene Regulation
. Process that controls the timing, location and amount of genes expressed

Selfish Genes
.Genes (lines and sines) that overeplciate, inhibit other genes, or move towards the germline to ensure their "survival".

Goal-Oriented Mutation
(Rejected because it is a random chance that mutation can be benefical or detrimental)
. Mutations that occur based on environmental needs.
