Charles Darwin
What theories did he create
What is Common decent and natural selection
what is
occurs when a subgroup of a species evolves
traits different from its
ancestors due to random
mutations and different
selection pressures.
what is divergent evolution
The process by which humans choose what the
desired traits are to be passed down
selective breeding
Role of anatomy is what
Homologous structures and vestigial structures
show evidence that different animals had
similar origins
What was he
Who is a naturalist
what is Convergent evolution
what is
Occurs when organisms that aren't closely
related evolve similar features or behaviours,
often as solutions to the same problems.
Theory of Natural Selection
what is
Allows for individuals with advantageous traits
to survive and reproduce, passing on their
advantageous traits; while organisms with
disadvantageous traits to be weeded out over
time due to selection pressures.
different species can have
similarities that are not visible when the
organism are fully formed.
Role of Embryology
What is his Birthday
What is February 12
A species of birds who have common ancestors lives on different islands in Hiwawa and they grow different traits over time
What is divergent evolution
A human farmer grows strawberries in a certain way to get the certain trait they want in the strawberry
What is selctive breeding
Role of Molecular Biology
amino acid sequence of proteins and
nucleotide sequence of DNA is more similar in
more closely related organisms
Charles Darwin preformed research of evolution
What is the Galapagos Islands
While whales and sharks don't have common ancestors they grew similar traits due to having similar selection pressures
What is convergent
A species of snakes has a good mutation and grows over time and reproduces a lot which leads to evolution
what is natural selection
Human: a z b t y u
Monkey: a z b t u u
Horse: a t y p i o
The monkey shows that is has a _____ with the human
What is a common acestory
How many kids did he raise
what is 10 children
What are the three major aspects that lead to evolution
What is natural section, bilogical fitness, and selction pressures.
