100
is the process of biological change by which descendants come to differ from their ancestors.
What is Evolution.
100
is the difference in the physical traits of an individual from those of other individuals in the group to which it belongs.
What is Variation.
100
the process by which humans change a species by breeding it for certain traits is called.
What is artificial selection.
100
the study of the distribution of organisms around the world.
What is Biogeography.
200
is a group of organisms so similar to one another that they can reproduce and have fertile offspring.
What is Species.
200
is a feature that allows an organism to better survive in its environment.
What is Adaptation.
200
is the ability of a trait to be passed down from one generation to the next.
What is Heritability.
200
are features that are similar in structure but appear in different organisms an have different functions.
What is Homologous Structures.
300
states that natural disasters such as floods and volcanic eruptions have happened often during Earth's long history.
What is Catastrophism.
300
variation among members of different species.
What is Interspecific Variation.
300
is a mechanism by which individuals that have inherited beneficial adaptations produce more offspring on average that do other individuals.
What is Natural selection.
300
are structures that perform a similar function but are not similar in origin.
What is Analogous structure.
400
a principle that states that changes that occur inland forms resulted from slow changes over a long period of time.
What is Gradualism.
400
can lead to genetic change in a population over time.
What is Adaptation.
400
is all the individuals of a species that live in an area.
What is population.
400
are remnants of organs or structures that had a function in a early ancestor.
What is Vestigial structures.
500
is a combination of the ideas of Charles Lyell's " Principles of Geology" and James Hutton's Gradualism.
What is Uniformitarianism.
500
___________ observations on his voyage supported Lyell's theory that daily geologic processes can add up to great change over a long period of time.
What is Darwin's.
500
the four main principles to the theory of natural selection and there definitions.
What are Variation + definition, Overproduction + def., Adaptation + def., Descent with modification + def.
500
The wings of bats and insects are called ________ ________.
What is Analogous Structures.
