Naturalist for 5 year trip
Who was Charles darwin
scientists that study fossils
what is a paleontologist
short period of time
what is microevolution
show how many of each allele is found in the population
what is allele frequency
difference fitness in a group
what is natural selection
believed in inheritance of acquired characteristics (wrong)
Who was Jean Lamarck
similar structures inherited from a common ancestor
what is homologous structures
over geologic time, results from microevolution over many generations
what is macroevolution
vary the alleles in a population
what is mutations
keep genes in a narrow window
what is stabilizing selection
ability to survive
what is fitness
structures that are similar in unrelated organisms
what are analogous structures
number of a specific species in a giving area
what is population
individuals move in and out of a gene pool
phenotypes in the middle of the range are selected against
what is disruptive selection
new species without geographic separation
what is sympatric
study of the similarities and differences in embryos of different species
what is comparative embryology
science that focuses on the evolution within a population
what is population genetics
random changes that happen in a small population
what is genetic drift
differences in phenotype of male and females
what is sexual dimorphism
species in symbiotic relationships tend to evolve together
what is coevolution
study of how and why plants and animals live where they do
what is evidence from biogeography
all genes of all the members of a population
gene pool
new population starts from small group
what is founder effect
new species evolves
what is speciation
