When the environment favors certain traits and increases their frequency, this is called what?

What is natural selection?

200

These are the least specific and most specific classifications.

What are Domain and Species?

200

This very diverse kingdom contains multicellular organisms, some of which have a backbone, that must consume other animals or plants to obtain energy.

What is Kingdom Animalia?

200

This image is an example of what kind of reproduction?

What is sexual reproduction?

200

When humans choose which organisms breed to emphasize desired traits, it is called what?

What is artificial selection?

300

If an organism belongs to the same phylum, they must belong to the same…?

  1. Species

  2. Kingdom

  3. Order

  4. Class

What is Kingdom?

300

This kingdom contains unicellular, prokaryotic organisms who love extremes.

What is Kingdom Archaea?

300

Which example is a result of sexual reproduction?

A. Two rabbits producing kits with traits from both parents

B. A strawberry plant producing runners that are clones

C. A cutting from a cactus growing into the same cactus

D. A mold spreading identical spores

What is A? Two rabbits producing kits with traits from both parents

300

What two body systems work together to supply oxygen to the cells?

What are the respiratory and circulatory systems?

300

Which outcome is most likely when humans use artificial selection?

A. An increase in the natural genetic variation of a wild population

B. Random changes in trait frequency with no pattern 

C. Traits chosen by humans become more common in the selected population

D. Immediate creation of completely new species

What is C? Traits chosen by humans become more common in the selected population

400

These two organisms belong to this same thing.

What is Genus?

400

This kingdom breaks down dead organisms and returns nutrients to the soil to be recycled as matter once again.

What is Kingdom Fungi?

400

This form of reproduction takes an extended amount of time and creates a wide variety of offspring.

What is sexual reproduction?

400

When you eat a sandwich, your digestive system breaks down food into nutrients. What two body systems will use these nutrients during exercise?

What are circulatory system (to transport nutrients) and muscular system?

400

Which scenario best illustrates natural selection?

A. Farmers breeding corn for larger kernels

B. A drought causes plants with deeper roots to survive and reproduce more

C. Gardeners grafting branches to make new fruit types

D. Scientists creating a hybrid in a lab for research

What is B? A drought causes plants with deeper roots to survive and reproduce more.

500

These two taxonomic classifications make up the scientific name.

What are Genus and Species?

500

This is the number of Domains and Kingdoms. (Daily double for both!)

What are 3 Domains and 6 Kingdoms?

500

This image shows different plants and the varieties that occur within them. What form of reproduction is this?

What is sexual reproduction?

500

Name two body systems and explain how they work together to regulate your heart rate when you are scared or excited?

What are the nervous system and respiratory (can use breathing to calm down) system? 

500

Why is genetic variation important for populations over time?

A. It guarantees that all individuals will survive any change

B. It provides different traits that may help some individuals survive changing conditions

C. It makes all offspring identical so they can reproduce faster

D. It prevents any change in trait frequency across generations

What is B? It provides different traits that may help some individuals survive changing conditions
