Anthropology
Archaeology, biological, cultural, linguistic
What are the 4 fields of anthropology?
In this process certain traits are passed on more than others because they are better suited to the environment.
What is natural selection?
These genes will be expressed even when heterogeneous.
What are dominant genes?
This simple trait has a dominant and recessive relationship.
What is a Mendelian trait?
Change in allele frequency over time
What is the definition of evolution?
Medical Anthropology belongs to this branch of Anthropology.
What is Cultural Anthropology?
This scientist shares credit with Charles Darwin for the theory of evolution and natural selection.
Who was Alfred Wallace?
This is the physical expression of the gene, as opposed to a genotype.
What is a phenotype?
What is the genotype?
This is the process of change within a species.
What is microevolution?
A proposal that has not been tested yet.
What is a hypothesis?
Darwin and his colleagues formulated the theory of evolution without knowing about either of these.
What are genetics and the cause of variation?
These particles bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins.
What are ribosomes?
Skin type is an example of this kind of trait.
What is a complex trait?
This is the source of most variation.
What is recombination?
Evolution is considered scientific because it can be tested using this method.
What is the scientific method?
Using fossil remains, Cuvier discovered this process by which entire species could go extinct.
What is catastrophism?
This form of cell division has two stages.
What is meiosis?
Someone with A type antibodies has these antigens.
What is Anti-B?
This is the ultimate source of new variation.
What is change in the genetic code?
Experiments using these equations can test evolution
What are Hardy-Weinberg equations?
This process, which is essential to evolution, allows natural selection to occur.
What is Variation?
Mutations on this gene prevent the production of tumor suppressing protein, thereby leading to Li-Fraumeni syndrome.
What is the TP53 gene?
This blood group is important because it may lead a mother's antibodies to attack a baby during pregnancy.
What is the Rhesis blood group?
Mutation, gene flow, genetic drift, natural selection
What are the four forces of evolution?
