Gene maps are based on?
the frequencies of crossing over between genes
How does natural selection create a change in the allele frequency?
Natural selection weeds out the alleles that are bad for survival in the current enviorment thus causing the well adapted alleles to be more frequent since the organisms that have the beneficial allele will survive to reproduce more and have more offspring, passing on the gene. for an really good example, look up the peppered moth!

How does the existence of an archipelago promote speciation?
An archipelago is basically a group of islands. Speciation according to the Biological Species Concept by Ernest Mayr, is -- populations whose members can interbreed and produce viable, fertile offspring. For example, the Galapagos finches studied by Charles Darwin. Some live on different parts of the archipelago and so have different features, adapting to their environment. These different feature obviously get passed down and are more frequent in future populations because those finches with this specific adaptation lived and reproduced better. So since there are different islands, there are different finch speciation and so the geographic isolation promotes speciation.

How do you use urbanized in a sentence?
Most social problems are greater in an urban area, where the population density is higher.
Natural selection can only act on traits?
Yes, traits that are phenotypical in nature and confer some survival and reproductive advantage, then the alleles that gave rise to these traits become more frequent in the populations gene pool and evolution takes place. So, natural selection is acting on genes in the individuals and population are evolving from this process.

Gene frequency
Why are dolphins reducing in numbers?
Hunting is more frequent than dolphins giving birth, so there's going to be a decrease in their population.
