Lesson 1
Early study of evolution
Early study of evolution
what is evolution?
What is changing or adapting to different environments?
individual species differ even though they are the same species
What is Variation?
Coevolution
What is the process by which 2 species evolve in response to changes in each other over time?
What is fossil record?
What are all the fossils that are preserved remains that have been discovered and what scientists have learned from them?
What is endosymbyosis?
What is A relationship in which one organism lives inside another organisms cells?
What is the term for preserved remains or traces of ancient organisms?
Darwin observed that some variations make individuals better adapted
What is their environment?
What is a mutation?
What is forming fossils?
Forming fossils is the process where an organism dies and is covered with seniment and they leave an impression in the sediment or the sediment hardens around them and creates a solid shape.
What is more closely related to horses: pigs or kangaroos?
What are pigs?
Inherited trait to improve survival
What is adapting?
Humans breed animals for desired traits
What is artificial selection?
How are mutations important?
They create genetic variation and diversity among people and plants on the earth?
What are the different kinds of fossils?
What are bod fossils and trace fossils?
How are dogs and kangaroos related?
What is having very close mammalism?
Father of evolution
Who is Charles Darwin?
A four-word phrase used to describe natural selection
What is survival of the fittest?
What is gene flow?
What is new allesles phisically moving to create new genetic variation in a population?
Where are fossils most commonly found?
What is near or in setiment and then buried in water where the rock hardens and preserves the organisms?
What is the common ancestor that every organism has?
What is Luca, Last Universal Common Ancester. A single celled organism similar to bacteria or archea?
Aquired traits over time
The first step of natural selection, where more offspring are produced than the ecosystem can hold
What is overpopulation?
What is sexual selection
What is the natural selection state that acts on an organisms ability to get the best mate?
This type of fossil comtains footprints, excrement, nests, and burrows?
What are trace fossils?
What are two species that have 93% of the same DNA?
What are humans and Monkeys?
