answer
question
$200
What is Artificial Selection?
Farmers only allowing the best animals to breed is an example of this process.
$400
What are use/disuse, passing on of acquired traits and desire to change?
Larmarck made these 3 false assumptions.
$600
What are the earth is older than once thought and has changed over time?
Lyell made these two key observations regarding the
earth.
$800
What is war, famine and disease are necessary to keep populations in check?
Malthus made these rather unpopular opinions known
regarding population dynamics.
$1000
What is On The Origin of Species?
In 1859, Charles Darwin finally published his conclusions in this
famous book.
$200
What is dying doing something incredibly stupid?
A Darwin award is granted to any person meeting these two
conditions.
$400
What is survival of the fittest?
Individuals whose characteristics are best suited to their environment survive and reproduce leaving more offspring describes this principle.
$600
What are selective pressures?
Factors in the environment that either favor or
disadvantage members of a species are known as these.
$800
What is fitness?
Physical traits and behaviors that help an organism survive and
reproduce in its environment are better known as this term.
$1000
What is the process in nature that results in the most fit organisms producing more
offspring and dominating the gene pool of the next generation?
Natural selection may be defined as this.
$200
What is the fossil record?
This is considered the only “direct” evidence of
evolution taking place.
$400
What are homologous structures?
Body parts that come from a common origin, but which
may look radically different are known as these.
$600
What are vestigial organs?
These body parts are remnants seemingly left
behind during evolution and are no longer of use to the
organism having them.
$800
What are analogous structures?
These body parts appear similar in both appearance
and function despite having very different origins.
$1000
What are finch beak size on Daphne Major and the Peppered Moth in England?
These two examples of evolution in action show
species changing in response to their environment.
$200
What is extinction?
This occurs when a species is unable to adapt successfully to a changing environment and results in the species
dying out.
$400
What is gradualism?
This theory of evolution prescribes to a slow
progression of change over long periods of time.
$600
What is punctuated equilibria?
A pattern of long stable periods interrupted by brief periods of change is better
known as this.
$800
What is variation due to sexual reproduction?
This factor often prevents a species from being
completely wiped out during periods of change in their
environment.
$1000
What is genetic research?
This area of scientific research is likely to yield the most useful information and shape modern evolutionary
theory in the future.
$200
What are genes?
These are considered the raw materials of evolution.
$400
What is genetic drift?
A random change in the frequency of a gene is known
as this concept.
$600
What are mutations?
Random changes in the genetic code of an organism
are known as these.
$800
What is an allele?
A specific form of any individual trait is known as
this.
$1000
What is the relative frequency of alleles for a particular trait?
Natural selection will result in a shift in this within a population’s gene pool.
$200
What is speciation?
The creation of a new species from a single original species
may be defined as this.
$400
What is convergent evolution?
The adaptation of structures that perform the same function due to similar environmental pressures
results in this evolutionary process.
$600
What is Adaptive Radiation?
When one species gives rise to many it is known as
divergent evolution. Another name for this process is this.
$800
What is niche?
The combination of an organisms place and occupation within its
ecosystem is better known by this term.
$1000
What are ancestors, separation of populations, changes in the gene pool,
reproductive isolation and sharing the same environment?
Speciation requires five distinct stages. In order, these are the five stages.
