Evolution
Who is Charles Darwin?
This is the differences in physical traits among organisms.
What is variation?
This is a change in the sequence of DNA. It is also the ultimate source of variety in a population.
What is mutation?
What is speciation?
This is the OTHER GUY that also put forth a theory that was similar to Darwin's natural selection.
Who is Alfred Russell Wallace?
This is evolution that effects only ONE population.
What is microevolution?
This is having lots of offspring to compete for resources in an environment.
What is overproduction of offspring?
This says that the organism who is best fit for the environment will survive.
What is extinction?
This is Mr. Pink's cat's name.
Who is Ringo Starr Kitten?
When two populations form a beneficial relationship over time.
What is coevolution?
This describes a change in gene frequency over time.
What is descent with modification?
This occurs during migration.
This is bursts of change followed by stability.
What is punctuated equilibrium?
This is the answer to the answer, man.
What is the answer?
This is a number of different species coming from one common ancestor.
What is divergent evolution?
This is a feature that benefits an organism in an environment.
What is an adaptation?
This is a random change in allele frequency over time, affecting smaller populations.
What is genetic drift?
This is slow constant changes over a period of a long time.
This is a type of divergent evolution that happens on a small scale over a shorter period of time.
What is adaptive radiation?
This is a measure of how well an organism can survive in it's environment.
What is fitness? (survival of the fittest)
This is the selection of traits that are not beneficial for survival.
What is non-random mating? (sexual selection)
This is also know as the "Hardy-Weinburg" equilibrium.
What is genetic equilibrium?
This is unrelated specioes share similar characteristics.
What is convergent evolution?
This is Mr. Pink's favorite teacher.
Who is Short King Watts?
