The biological change process by which descendants come to differ from their ancestors.
What is evolution?
100
A mechanism by which individuals that have inherited beneficial adaptations produce more offspring on average than do other individuals.
What is Natural selection?
100
Something that can be inherited through genetic characteristics... means that everyone is different!
What is variation?
100
This is a polar molecule which has an oxygen and 2 hydrogen atoms.
What is water?
100
These are the products of photosynthesis.
What is Oxygen and glucose(sugar)?
200
a group of organisms that can reproduce and have fertile offspring.
What is a species?
200
The process by which humans select traits through breeding.
What is Artificial selection?
200
When there exists more organisms than the ecosystem can support
What is overpopulation?
200
The sticking together of alike molecules, such as water molecule being attracted to another water molecule
What is cohesion?
200
This is a phase in the cell cycle where the cell grows, copies its DNA and grows again.
What is interphase?
300
Fossils, study of geography, embryology and anatomy show evidence
What is Evolution?
300
The ability of a trait to be passed down
What is Heritability?
300
The transfer of genetic information from one population to another
What is gene flow?
300
This property of water demonstrates the attraction of one water molecule to another.
What is Adhesion?
300
This organelle is in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells and produces proteins.
What is Ribosome?
400
This is similar in structure but different in function.
What is a Homologous structures?
400
The measure of survival ability and ability to produce more offspring.
What is fitness?
400
A change in the allelic frequency within a population due to random chance
What is Genetic drift?
400
The amount of heat one gram of a substance must absorb or lose to change its temperature by one degree Celsius. Water must absorb more heat energy to increase in temperature.
What is High specific heat?
400
1.Sugar ribose 2.Single strain 3.Contains the nitrogen base Uracil
What is RNA?
500
These are remnants of organs or structures that had a function in an early ancestor.
What is Vestigial structures?
500
Permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA or other genetic elements
What is mutation?
500
When two chromosomes, normally two homologous instances of the same chromosome, break and then reconnect but to the different end piece.
What is cross over?
500
This is the type of bond connects the oxygen atom to the two hydrogen atoms in water?
