This man, although not the first to hypothesis about it, is considered to be the "Father of Evolution"
Who is Charles Darwin

This part of the female anatomy plays host to a developing fetus for the 9 month process.
What is the uterus

This Austrian Monk worked with pea plants to draw conclusions about hereditary traits, which lead to the modern genetics that are studied today
Who is Gregor Mendel

Phineas Gage had this lobe of his brain damaged, which lead to a change in his personality and self
What is the frontal lobe
100
All photosynthetic organisms contain this pigment, responsible for absorbing photons from incoming light.
What is chlorophyll
200
This name is given to the structure on a body that is considered to be not used, but still there.
What is a vestigial organ
200
The male reproductive system produces this many viable sperm from one spermatocyte cell
What is 4 viable sperm
200
3 nitrogenous bases on a strand of DNA make up this, which will eventually be read to choose an amino acid to add to a protein.
What is a codon
200
This gland is responsible for releasing adrenaline, and is located on the kidneys.
What is the adrenal gland
200
A stack of thylakoids is given this name, which are designed for maximum surface area to ensure light absorption is most affective.
What is grana
300
This type of selection leads to an evolutionary shift in only one direction (hint: stabilizing, disruptive or directional selection)
What is directional selection
300
In the process of Mitosis, it is during this stage that the sister chromatids split apart to opposite sides of the cell.
What is Anaphase
300
This structure is responsible for delivering the correct amino acid to a developing protein chain. It contains an anticodon to match up with a codon, so that it knows when to add its amino acid.
What is tRNA
300
The nerve cell has these, which are the primary acceptors of a stimuli from the environment
What are dendrites
300
This cycle, after light is absorbed, creates G3P, the most important product of photosynthesis, as it is used to make all sugars the plant uses for structure and food.
What is the Calvin Cycle
400
A human arm, a cat's paw, a bat's wing, and a whale's fin are known as this type of structure, implying that they are anatomically similar across species
What is a homologous structure
400
When performing Meiosis, there is a crossing over of DNA that occurs during this phase
What is prophase I
400
This nucleus-exiting strand is made up of a sugar-phosphate backbone and the base pairs A, U, G and C.
What is RNA
400
This fatty addition to the axon aids in speeding up transmission of an impulse, by leaving only gaps where depolarization needs to occur
What is the Myelin Sheath
400
When looking at the chemical equation of photosynthesis, it is very apparent that it is the equation for this process, with the reactants and products switched.
What is cellular respiration
500
This study, which was widely believed prior to evolutionary theories, is the belief that all life has been made by a creator and perfected in this way.
What is Creationism
500
The physiology of an embryo does not show the gender until this amount of time after successful fertilization
What is 7 weeks
500
Your parents both have brown eyes, but you have blue eyes, which implies that your parents both had this type of allele for blue eyes, even though it wasn't shown.
What is a recessive allele
500
Contrary to "The Waterboy", this structure does not control aggression, but rather most involuntary processes that the body requires, like breathing.
What is the Medulla Oblangata
500
This yellow-orange pigment is responsible for the vibrant colours that autumn brings when the green pigment is no longer dominant
