Cuvier
Who studied animal anatomy

Overproduction
Each species produces more offspring that can survive
100
Biochemical Evidence
DNA with more similar sequences suggest species are more closely related
100
Reproductive
When members of two populations cannot interbreed and produce fertile offspring
100

Wallace
natural selection collected 126,000 specimen

phenotype (physical appearance)
Natural selection acts upon what
200
Fossil
A record of the history of life on Earth Archaeopteryx- Missing link between reptiles and birds
200
Behavioral
When two populations ARE capable of interbreeding but they have differences in courtship rituals or reproductive strategies that involve behavior
200
Common Descent
all living organisms are related to one another
300
Hutton
studied earth’s layers
300
Competition
Individuals COMPETE for limited resources: Food,Water,Space,Mates

Embryology
Embryos of all vertebrates are very similar early on
300
Geographic
When two populations are separated by geographic barriers
300
Descent with Modification
each living species has descended,with changes, from other species over time
400
Mental
father of Genetics - mendel's peas

Variation
Each individual has a unique combination of inherited traits Adaptation: an inherited trait that increases an organism’s chances of survival
400
Homologous Body Structure
Similar anatomy in different types of animals because of common ancestor
400
Temporal
Two or more species reproduce at different times
400
Thursdays

Darwin
Father of evolution through natural selections
500
Selection
The individuals with the best traits/adaptations will survive and have the opportunity to pass on it’s traits to offspring
500
Vestigial Organs
“Leftover” traces of evolution that serve no purpose
500
Speciation
The formation of new species due to a change in the frequencies in specific genes in a population is called what
500
Arms,wings
