DAILY DOUBLE Back

This type of speciation results if members of the same species are separated and isolated from one another, while this type of speciation occurs if the population comes back together but can’t reproduce with each other Back Allopatric, sympatric

These are types of barriers that prevent new species from forming because of potential complications prior to the conception of an embryo Back Pre-zygotic barriers

This is the area where new species are able to form Back Hybrid zone

This is the process where inherited traits are passed down and result in a lot of phenotypic variation and multiple new species, such as in finches or cichlids Back Adaptive radiation

This type of evolution results in similar traits that derived independently in different populations that did not interbreed Back Convergent evolution

These were the first living organisms on planet Earth Back prokaryotes

This experiment showed how living things could have been formed from nonliving chemicals during the Early Earth conditions Back Miller-Urey

This chemical came around after prokaryotes and allowed for many animals to survive Back oxygen

These were believed to be responsible for the assembly of RNA monomers Back ribozymes

These are known for being able to carry out metabolism and could have served as the first cell membranes Back liposomes

This is the naming process that utilizes the genus and species in italics Back Binomial nomenclature

This is a method of comparing characteristics within characteristics Back cladistics

The presence of jaws was a new development in fish, but was around for a long time before monkeys evolved and had jaws. To fish, jaws would be this type of trait, while for monkeys, jaws would be this type of trait Back Derived trait, primitive trait

A group that includes a common ancestor and all of its descendants would be known as this Back monophyletic

The simplest explanation is the best describes this philosophy that is applied to the construction of phylogenetic trees Back parsimony

prokaryote fossils Back stromatolites

new species from two species Back Hybrid species

more chromosomes in a species that’s derived from one organism Back autopolyploidy

80% of plant species formed from this type of speciation Back Sympatric

Age of the Earth Back 4.6 billion years

This is the scientist who is best known for the taxonomy of organisms Back Linneaus

Two species that can’t mate because one species doesn’t know how to dance properly during courtship would be separated because of this barrier Back Behavioral isolation

This is the theory that eukaryotes gained organelles from prokaryotes Back endosymbiosis

This is the name of a table that indicates whether or not organisms have certain traits Back Character table

This is the scientist who proposed the idea that populations have limits on their growth Back Malthus

Bases created in Nova video Back C, U

new mixed species Back Hybrid species

Gene studied in Sticklebacks Back Pitx1

genes formed through speciation Back Orthologous genes

another name for a monophyletic group Back Clade

This is the name for the speciation event in which many different animal species evolved Back Cambrian explosion

This is the extinction event that allowed for the radiation of mammals Back Cretaceous

Prokaryotes are believed to have evolved around this long ago Back 3.5 billion years

This is the first organelle that was taken in by the eukaryote during endosymbiosis Back mitochondria

These genes are responsible for development and are found in many different organisms Back Hox genes
