WHAT ARE THE THREE STAGES OF THE EARLY VIEWS OF LIFE?

1

Who is the character that first suggested that the earth is young?

1

Carolus Linnaeus was the naturalist that introduced an hierarchical classification of living things on his book "Sistema Naturae" ?

1

Who proposed on his book that humans were part of the animal kingdom?

1

Who used the study of fossils as a fact for extinction?

1

In addition to their benefits, deep beaks have disadvantages. In non-drought conditions, finches with deep beaks require more food and are less likely to survive the juvenile period than finches with shallow beaks. After the drought subsided on Daphne Major, what pattern would you expect to occur in the beak depths of the next generation?

1

Although some behavior or morphology benefits the individual, it also increases competition between members of a group or population. It is important to remember that when selection for a behavior or morphology begins, all members of a group or population cannot benefit at the same time!...?

1

Organisms are well suited to their environmental circumstances.

1

The evolution of complex adaptations does not requires all of the intermediate steps to be favored by selection.

1

What is the word that scientists use to describe an organism's size, shape, and composition, in light of natural selection pressures?

1

Adaptations __ an organism's ability to survive and _ in a given environment.

1

Are populations made up of individuals that are exactly alike?

1

Do all environments have an infinite ability to support increasing populations?

1

If it can survive in a given environment, an organism is evolutionarily successful

1

Do organisms need to compete with other members of their population for resources

1

Are advantageous traits pass from parents to offspring

1

MAJOR EVOLUTIONARY CHANGE HAPPENS SLOWLY

1

ORGANISM CAN PASS CHANGES ON TO THEIR OFFSPRING

1

ENVIRONMENTAL PRESSURES CAUSE ORGANISM TO CHANGE

1

SMALL EVOLUTIONARY CHANGES ACCUMULATE TO MAKE LARGE ONES

1

VARIATION IS WHAT ALLOWS ORGANISMS TO CHANGE OVER TIME

1

CHARLES DARWIN WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO UNDERSTAND HOW VARIATION IS MAINTAINED THROUGH GENETICS

1

What is the term that demographers use for the ability to produce offspring?

1

CHARLES DARWIN CAME UP WITH HIS POSTULATE DURING THE _____ CENTURY

1

Darwin believed that a _________ is a population of varied individuals that may or may not change through time.

1

What kind of beak depth will the offspring of parents with deep beak depth have?

1

What state does a population reach when the selective advantage of an adaptive trait no longer changes?

1

In Darwin's day, most people believed that the characteristics of offspring are an average of their parent's characteristics. This concept is called __________ inheritance.

1

The ship that Darwin took his voyage on was called the HMS __________.

1

Spontaneous generation is an idea firstly developed by

1

Earth and humans are not the center
of universe

1

Who wrote systema naturae

1

Scientific revolution
-
Earth and humans are not the center
of universe (Copernicus, Redi)
-
Hierarchical classification of species (Linnaeus)
-
Geography and climate affect species distributions (Buffon)
-
Sudden environmental changes lead to extinction (Cuvier)

1

Darwin’s primary influences
-
Lyell: The Earth is ancient––old enough for significant changes to
have taken place
-
Lamarck (and others): biological change over time
-
Malthus: overproduction and competition over limited resources
-
His own experiences as a naturalist

Meaning of adaptations?

1

What is natural selection?

1

Morphology: phenotypic variation in which there is a continuum of types

1

Trait; a characteristic of an organism...?

1

When there is a steady state in which the composition of a population does not changes (not change in traits) ; it is said that the population is on?

1

A trait or attribute of the phenotype of an organism is said to be its?

1

Selection pressures that favor average phenotypes reduces the amount of variation in the population, does not alter the mean value is said to be?

1

The biological capacity to reproduce is known as?

1

What is a species?

1

Convergence; evolution of similar adaptations in unrelated species ...?

1

Placental mammals

1

Marsupials

1

Continuous variation vs Discontinuous variation (more than one answer could be correct)

1

Genotype & Phenotype (more than answer could be correct)

1

Locus
(loci)? position in a chromosome that is occupied by a particular gene

1

Archbishop James Ussher analyzed Genesis and estimated that the Earth began __(day name),(month)(day date #) of 4_ _ _ B.C.

1

Genotypic frequency

1

When no other forces (such as natural selection) are operating, genotypic frequencies reach stable proportions in just one generation. These proportions are called the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

1

After how many generations will the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium be reached if no other processes act to change the genotypic frequencies

1

Which two of the following can change the distribution of genotypes?

1

Which of the following can lead to evolution in the long run, or change in the frequency of alleles?

THE UNIFYING THEORY FOR BIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGY IS:

1

PROTEINS:

1

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING ALLELE COMBINATIONS INDICATES A RECESSIVE HOMOZYGOUS PEA PLANT WITH GREEN SEEDS?

1

IF AN "AA" INDIVIDUAL (GENOTYPE) CROSSES WITH A "aa" INDIVUAL, WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY THAT ANY PARTICULAR OFFSRPING WILL HAVE GENOTYPE Aa?

1

THE ENVIRONMENT RECENTLY CHANGED SO THAT MOST INDIVIDUALS IN A POPULATION ARE NOT WELL ADAPTED TO THE ENVIRONMENT. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF:

1

A SCIENTIST STUDYING FINCHES COLLECTS DEAD BIRDS AND FINDS THAT MOST WHO DIED HAD VERY LARGE OR VERY SMALL BEAKS. THIS IS MOST LIKELY AN EXAMPLE OF:

1

AN EXAMPLE OF MACROEVOLUTION IS:
