NATURAL SELECTION STATES THAT ORGANISMS WITH CERTAIN HERTIABLE TRAITS ARE BETTER ABLE TO _________ & __________

WHAT IS.... SURVIVE & REPRODUCE

100

IN SOME CASES A MUTATION (ADAPTION) IS SO BENEFICAL IT APPEARS IN ALL INDIVIDUALS IN A POPULATION. WE WOULD THEN SAY THE ALLELE IS 

WHAT IS... FIXED 

100

ROCK LAYERS AT THE BOTTOM USUALLY DISPLAY WHAT

OLDER, MORE SIMPLE ANCESTRAL SPECIES 
100

THIS TYPE OF SPECIATION IS SLOW, UNIFORM, AND GRADUAL 

WHAT IS... GRADUALISM 

100

DURING HARDY-WEINBERG, IF THERE ARE NO DIFFERENCES IN ALLELE FREQUENIES BETWEEN POPULATIONS THEN 

WHAT IS... THE POPULATION IS NOT EVOLVING 

200

EVOLUTION OCCURS WITHIN A __________ AND OVER THE COURSE OF MANY ___________.

WHAT IS... POPULATION & GENERATIONS 

200

THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE CAUSE NEW VARIATION IN A POPULATION IS

WHAT IS... MUTATIONS

200

A SCIENTIST LOOKING AT SIMILARITIES IN ADULT SPECIES IS 

A SCIENTIST LOOKING AT SIMILARITIES IN EMBROYNIC SPECIES IS 

TRAITS FROM A COMMON ANCESTOR THAT NO LONGER SERVE A PURPOSE ARE

COMARPTIVE MORPHOLOGY 

COMARPITIVE EMBRYOLOGY 

VESTIGIAL STRUCTURES 

200

THIS SPECIES CONCEPT DEFINES A SPECIES BASED ON - IF THE SPECIES LOOK SIMILAR TO EACH OTHER & DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS 

THIS SPECIES CONCEPT DEFINES A SPECIES BASED ON - IF THE SPECIES IS ADAPTED TO USE A SPECIFIC RESOURCE (NICHE)  

WHAT IS... 

PHENETIC 

ECOLOGICAL 

200

LIST ALL OF THE ORGANISM WHO HAVE AMNIOTIC EGGS 

REPTILES, BIRDS, RODENTS, PRIMATES

300

IDENTIFY ONE OF THE MAIN POINTS OF DARWIN'S THEORY OF EVOLUTION 

1. SPECIES CHANGE OVER TIME & SPACE -- OFFSPRING DIFFER FROM ANCESTORS 

2. ALL ORGANISM SHARE A COMMON ANCESTOR 

3. EVOLUTION IS LOW & GRADUAL 


300

In a bird population, there is variation in beak size. One year, it was found that medium-sized bill birds were most common. Next year during a drought, most of the population died off. The birds with large-sized bills were able to survive and reproduce easiest. What type of selection is displayed before the drought? What type is displayed after?  

WHAT IS... STABILIZING  --  DIRECTIONAL SELECTION 

300
WHAT TYPE OF EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION IS DESCRIBED... YOU ARE WATCHING AS THE FREQUENCY OF ANTIBIOITC BACTERIA ARE INCREASING - DUE TO SURVIVAL AND REPRODUCTION - AFTER THE INITAL APPLICATION OF AN ANTIBIOTIC 
WHAT IS... DIRECT OBSERVATION 
300

WHAT MUST OCCUR IN ORDER FOR SPECITATION TO OCCURS

WHAT IS... REPRODUCTIVE ISOLATION AND RESTRICTED GENE FLOW 
300

NAME ALL 5 CONDITIONS THAT MUST BE MET FOR A SPECIES TO BE IN HARDY-WEINBERG 

1. NO GENE FLOW 

2. NO NATURAL SELECTION 

3. RANDOM MATING (NO SEXUAL SELECTION) 

4. NO MUTATION 

5. LARGE POPULATION SIZE 

400

NAME THREE MECHAISMS OF EVOLUTION

1. GENETIC DRIFT 

2. GENE FLOW (MIGRATION) 

3. NATURAL SELECTION 

4. SEXUAL SELECTION 

5. MUTATIONS 

400

WHY DOES SEXUAL SELECTION CREATE POTENTIALLY HARMFUL & EXTREME SECONDARY SEXUAL CHARACTERISTICS 

THESE CHARACTERITICS SYMBOL "GOOD GENES" - AS THEY ARE ABLE TO HAVE THE GENES AND STILL SURVIVE/REPRODUCE

400

CONVERGENT EVOLUTION IS TO ________ STRUCTURES, AS DIVERGENT EVOLUTION IS TO ________ STRUCTURES 

WHAT IS ANALOGOUS... HOMOLOGOUS 

400

A RIVER FORMS OVER THE COURSE OF 10,000 YEARS SLOWLY ISOLATING ONE PORTION OF A POPULATION FROM ANOTHER. AS A RESULT, WHEN THE TWO MEET EACHOTHER LATER, NEITHER VIEWS THE OTHER AS A VIABLE MATE. WHAT TYPE OF SPECIATION IS THIS?

WHAT IS... ALLOPATRIC 

400


IN THE PICTURE WHO IS THE MOST RECENT COMMON ANCESTOR OF NON-AVIAN DINOSAURS AND BIRDS

WHAT IS... DINOSAURIA 

500

LIST THE 4 CONDITIONS OF NATURAL SELECTION

1. VARIATION 

2. INHERITENCE 

3. OVER-REPRODUCTION 

4. DIFFERENTIAL SURVIVAL & REPRODUCTION 

500

IN THE 1900S, THE BEARDED VULTURE POPULATION WAS ALMOST HUNTED TO EXTINCTION BY HUMANS. THEIR NUMBERS WERE SO REDUCED AT ONE POINT, THERE WERE NO WILD "BONE CRUSHER" VULTURES. AS A RESULT, THEIR GENETIC DIVERSITY WAS AFFECTED, AS MANY ALLELES WERE REMOVED FROM THE POPULATION. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF: 

WHAT IS... BOTTLENECK EFFECT


500

WHY DO SPECIES WITH SIMILAR ANCESTRAL POPULATIONS DISPLAY SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT VARIATIONS IN MORPHOLOGICAL TRAITS.

DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS SELECT FOR CERTAIN TRAITS DIFFERENTLY 
500

IDENTIFY A MECHANSIM OF MICROEVOLUTION 

IDENTIFY A MECHANISM OF MACROEVOLUTION 

1. NATURAL SELECTION, SEXUAL SELECTION, GENE FLOW, GENETIC DRIFT, MUTATIONS 

2. ADAPTIVE RADIATION, MASS EXTINCTION
