This is when the last individual of a species dies
What is extinction?
100
This is who came up with the theory of natural selection
Who is Charles Darwin?
100
This type of fossil forms when sediment fills in a mold
What is cast?
100
This type of evidence includes body parts that no longer function they way they used to
What is vestigial structures?
100
This type of dating uses ratios of unstable and stable isotopes
What is absolute-age dating?
200
This is a person who studies plants and animals by observing them
What is a naturalist?
200
This is when organisms have to "fight" for food, water, etc.
What is competition?
200
This type of fossil forms when an impression is made
What is mold?
200
This type of evidence involves the use of DNA sequences
What is molecular biology?
200
These are the two environmental changes related to extinction
What are sudden change and gradual change?
300
This is made up of all the fossils ever discovered on Earth
What is the fossil record?
300
This is when organisms make more of themselves
What is reproduction?
300
This type of fossil is when rock-forming minerals replace the tissue of an organism
What is mineralization?
300
This type of evidence shows similarities and differences between body parts and functions of organisms
What is comparative anatomy?
300
These are the three types of adaptations
What are behavioral, structural, and functional?
400
This is an inherited trait that increases an organism's chance of surviving and reproducing in its environment
What is adaptation?
400
This is a slight difference in a physical characteristic of an organism
What is variation?
400
This type of fossil shows the activity of an organism
What is trace fossil?
400
This type of evidence shows similarities in how organisms look when first starting to grow
What is developmental biology?
400
These are the six types of fossil formation
What are molds, casts, mineralization, carbonization, trace fossils, and original material?
500
This is a change over time in populations of related organisms
What is biological evolution?
500
This is when a variation has allowed organisms to survive and have handed down the variation over generations and now most of the species have that variation
What is selection?
500
This type of fossils forms a film when the liquids and gases are squeezed out and is usually black or dark brown
What is carbonization?
500
These are the two types of molecular biology
What are comparing sequences and divergence?
500
These are the four biological items used to prove evolution
What are comparative anatomy, vestigial structures, developmental biology, molecular biology?
