Difference between Natural selection and Y chromosome

Natural selection vs. Y chromosome

Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. The Y chromosome is one of two sex chromosomes (allosomes) in mammals, including humans, and many other animals.

Similarities between Natural selection and Y chromosome

Natural selection and Y chromosome have 16 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Cell (biology), Chromosome, Gamete, Genetic drift, Genetic recombination, Genetics, Harvard University Press, Karyotype, Locus (genetics), Nature (journal), Non-coding DNA, Offspring, Phenotype, Species, W. D. Hamilton.

Allele

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.

Cell (biology)

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.

Chromosome

A chromosome (from Ancient Greek: χρωμόσωμα, chromosoma, chroma means colour, soma means body) is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism.

Gamete

A gamete (from Ancient Greek γαμετή gamete from gamein "to marry") is a haploid cell that fuses with another haploid cell during fertilization (conception) in organisms that sexually reproduce.

Genetic drift

Genetic drift (also known as allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect) is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms.

Genetic recombination

Genetic recombination (aka genetic reshuffling) is the production of offspring with combinations of traits that differ from those found in either parent.

Genetics

Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms.

Harvard University Press

Harvard University Press (HUP) is a publishing house established on January 13, 1913, as a division of Harvard University, and focused on academic publishing.

Karyotype

A karyotype is the number and appearance of chromosomes in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell.

Locus (genetics)

A locus (plural loci) in genetics is a fixed position on a chromosome, like the position of a gene or a marker (genetic marker).

Nature (journal)

Nature is a British multidisciplinary scientific journal, first published on 4 November 1869.

Non-coding DNA

In genomics and related disciplines, noncoding DNA sequences are components of an organism's DNA that do not encode protein sequences.

Offspring

In biology, offspring are the young born of living organisms, produced either by a single organism or, in the case of sexual reproduction, two organisms.

Phenotype

A phenotype is the composite of an organism's observable characteristics or traits, such as its morphology, development, biochemical or physiological properties, behavior, and products of behavior (such as a bird's nest).

Species

In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity, but it has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.

W. D. Hamilton

William Donald Hamilton, FRS (1 August 1936 – 7 March 2000) was an English evolutionary biologist, widely recognised as one of the most significant evolutionary theorists of the 20th century.

Natural selection and Y chromosome Comparison

Natural selection has 333 relations, while Y chromosome has 163. As they have in common 16, the Jaccard index is 3.23% = 16 / (333 + 163).
