100
ability to survive and reproduce, not all individuals survive adulthood
What is fitness?
100
- evolution by natural selection - researched Galapagos island - father of evolution, went on 5 year boat voyage - author of “Origin of Species” - father of evolution
Who is Charles Darwin?
100
What type of evidence do we have?
fossil records, homologous body structure, vestigial, embryological
100
Name the categories
overproduction, competition, variation, selection
100
How many mechanisms exist?
4
200
process of change over time
What is evolution?
200
dealt with father of genetics and pea plants
Who is Gregor Mendel?
200
What are fossil records? Give two examples
records of Earths history
200
where each species produce more offspring that can survive
What is overproduction?
200
where two populations are capable of interbreeding but they have differences in courtship equals or reproductive strategies that involve behavior
What is behavioral isolation?
300
difference between hypothesis // theory
What is a proposed explanation slash educated guess? What is a broad explanation using evidence?
300
researched earth layers and geologic times
Who is James Hutton?
300
What are body structures having similar anatomy in different types of animals because of coming ancestors
What is homologous body structure?
300
each individual has a unique combination of inherited traits
What is variation?
300
members of the population interbreed and produce fertile offspring, at this point the two populations have separate gene pools
What is reproductive isolation?
400
condition in which an organism has extra sets of chromosomes
What is polyploidy?
400
( 2 PEOPLE ) - dealt with animal relationship and common ancestors - dealt with population vs food source
Who is Georges Cuvier and Thomas Malthus?
400
What is vestigial?
“leftover” traces of evolution that have no purpose
400
explain competition
individuals compete for limited resources ( food water space mates) and where natural selection occurs through survival of the fittest
400
where two or more species reproduce if different times
What is temporal isolation?
500
DNA showing a similar close relation between species
What is biochemistry?
500
( 2 PEOPLE ) - dealt with taxonomy and classifying species - he collected 126,000 species and dealt with evolution by natural selection
Who is Carolus Linnaeus and Alfred Wallace?
500
embryos of all vertebrates are very similar
What is embryological evidence?
500
True or False? Selection is where best traits and adaptations will survive and have an opportunity to pass traits, they will be passed onto phenotype not genotype good traits build up in a population and bad traits are eliminated by death of the individuals
False, they will be passed onto genotype not phenotype,
500
where two populations are represented by geographic barriers
What is geographic isolation?
