Name the Line of evidence
A link between dinosaurs and birds is found by unearthing remnants of the intermediate species archaeopteryx.
Fossil record
This is a feature that no longer serves a purpose, but is left over from an organism's evolutionary past.
Vestigial trait
A kind of drug used to treat/prevent a bacterial infection
Antibiotic
The islands where Darwin observed tortoises and finches
Galapagos
A certain gene is 99.9% identical between humans and chimpanzees, but only 78% identical between humans and frogs.
DNA evidence
This is a feature that is shared by different species due to a common ancestor.
Homologous Feature
A strand of bacteria that has evolved to become less affected by a medication
Drug-resistant bacteria
Goosebumps are an example of what type of feature on humans
vestigial
Whales still have finger and hand bones within their flippers and even have a pelvic bone- evidence of the evolutionary past.
Comparative anatomy- vestigial features.
This is a feature that two species share due to similar selective pressures, but that is NOT inherited from a common ancestor.
Analogous feature
Name one of the ways in which bacteria avoid being killed by antibiotics (from the video)
Upchuck, stealth mode, ballistic missile
An explanation for a natural phenomenon that has been tested and corroborated in accordance with the scientific method.
Scientific Theory
Very early in development, humans have gill slits and a tail like our ancient ancestors did.
Comparative anatomy- embryonic development.
The wings of a bat and the wings of a butterfly are an example of this feature
Analogous
Name of the ways in which bacteria pass on or swap genes with each other besides normal cell division
Funeral grab, viral pass, making whoopie
The names of the two scientists who developed the theory of evolution by natural selection (last names only is OK)
Darwin and Wallace
A human being and an oak tree both contain cells with mitochondria that carry out cellular respiration.
Homologous feature.
The opposable thumbs of a chimpanzee and those of a human are an example of this kind of feature
Homologous
Name at least 2 things that can be done to prevent the rise of superbugs (could be individual or societal)
- Take full dose of medication
- Avoid overuse of antibiotics
- Limit use in livestock
- Use lab tests to identify specific stains of concern
What is a transitional species?
Link between modern-day species and some ancient, extinct ancestor
