FOSSILS
PRIMATES
100
LIKE THE PELVIS IN THE WHALE, THESE STRUCTURES HAVE NO KNOWN FUNCTION IN PRESENT DAY
What is VESTIGIAL STRUCTURES
100
THIS BRITISH NATURALIST DEVELOPED THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION THROUGH NATURAL SELECTION
WHO IS DARWIN
100
DO SCIENTISTS AGREE OR DISGREE ON THE RATE OF EVOLUTION
What is DISAGREE
100
SCIENTISTS WHO STUDY FOSSILS
WHO ARE PALEONTOLOGISTS
100
2 ORGANISMS THAT BELONG IN THE PRIMATE GRP
WHAT ARE HUMANS, APES, MONKEYS
200
IN UNDISTURBED LAYERS OF ROCK, THIS IS WHERE YOU FIND THE OLDEST FOSSILS
What is ON THE BOTTOM LAYER
200
ACCORDING TO DARWIN'S THEORY OF NATURAL SELECTION THESE ORGANISMS WILL MOST LIKELY REPRODUCE AND PASS ON GENES /TRAITS
WHAT ARE ORGANISMS WITH THE STRONGER OR MORE DESIRABLE TRAIT
200
this individual helped to define and prove evolution with his theory of natural selection
who is Charles Darwin
200
this theory says that a fossil is about the same age as the rocks it is found within
what is relative dating
200
this is evidence of a shared ancestor for primates
shared DNA, Homologous features
300
PARTS OF ORGANISMS THAT ARE SIMILAR IN STRUCTURE AND SHOW A CLOSE EVOLUTIONARY LINK
WHAT ARE HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURES
300
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN INDIVIDUALS OF THE SAME SPECIES
WHAT IS VARIATION
300
This bacteria demonstrates evolution by surviving antibiotics
what is antibiotic resistant bacteria
300
THIS TYPE OF FOSSIL RECORD WILL EXAMINE THE ROCK LAYERS.. NEWER ROCKS ARE CLOSER TO THE TOP, OLDER ROCKS ARE IN THE LOWER LAYERS
What is RELATIVE DATING
300
name a homologous feature humans share with other primates
various answers
400
THIS EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT FISH, BIRDS, AND MAMMALS HAVE A TAIL AND GILLS OR GILL SLITS IN THEIR EARLY DEVELOPMENT
WHAT IS EMBYOLOGY
400
ALLOWS AN ORGANISM TO BETTER SURVIVE IN ITS ENVIRONMENT
WHAT IS ADAPTATION
400
this studies the similarities of developing organisms after conception and before birth
What is embryology
400
THIS TYPE OF RECORD WILL DETERMINE THE AGE OF A ROCK BY COMPARING THE AMOUNT OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENT IN THE ROCK
What is RADIOMETRIC DATING
400
2 characteristics that all primates share
What are opposable thumbs, binocular vision, flexible shoulders, rotating forelimbs
500
MANY PRIMATES HAVE THIS IN COMMON, THE PROTEIN IN RED BLOOD CELLS THAT CARRY THE OXYGEN. WHAT IS THIS CALLED
What is HEMOGLOBIN
500
WHERE DID DARWIN GO TO STUDY EVOLUTION AND WHAT ANIMAL WAS HE MOST KNOWN FOR STUDYING?
GALAPAGOS ISLANDS. FINCHES
500
Fossil evidence suggests that current primates descended from a reptilian ancestor, what proves this
Egg laying mammals: monotremes
500
2 SPECIFIC EXAMPLES OF FOSSILS
WHAT ARE IMPRINTS IN ROCK, PIECE OF BONE, ORGANISM FROZEN IN ICE, ORGANISM TRAPPED IN AMBER
500
true or false, evolution proves humans evolved from chimpanzees
