Question 1 This scientist’s theory states that acquired traits can be passed on to offspring (ex. Neck stretching results in children with longer necks.) What is Lamarck’s Theory of Evolution?

Question 2 Natural selection theory was proposed by this scientist. Who is Darwin?

Question 3 This theory states that evolution is purposeful and has a pre-determined result. What is teleology?

An example of this theory is: “If you get big muscles, you will pass them on to your children”. Question 4 LaMarck’s theory of evolution.

Question 5 List two points included in the theory of evolution by natural selection. What is variation, adaptation, struggle to survive survival of the fittest, organisms overproduce, descent with modification (any paired combination of the above).

Question 6 Type of structure: same internal structure but different function or external appearance. Homologous structure?

Question 7 Type of structure: Same function (like flying) but different structure. Analogous structure?

Question 8 Give an example of a vestigial structure. Appendix, inner eyelid for example?

Question 9 This study of the development of early life is one type of evidence for evolution. What is embryology?

Question 10 This evidence shows the genetic relationships between common ancestors. What is biochemical evidence?

Give an example of coevolution. Question 11 Examples could be – hummingbird & flower, ants & acacia

Question 12 Type of evolution: Organisms of different ancestry have similar phenotypes. What is convergent evolution?

Question 13 Organisms that are similar become different over time according to this type of evolution. What is divergent evolution?

Question 14 Galapagos Finches are an example of this type of divergent evolution. What is adaptive radiation?

Explain why the example of a hummingbird and flower represents coevolution? Question 15 Hummingbird has adapted to help pollinate flowers; flower has adapted to provide food for the hummingbird

The process of transferring genes among different populations is known as: Question 16 What is gene flow?

Question 17 The formation of a new species is called: What is speciation?

Question 18 Species specific bird rituals & courtship dances are examples of what? What is behavioral isolation? (Will also accept reproductive isolation.

Question 19 Two factors that define a species. What is the ability to interbreed and have fertile offspring?

Question 20 Give an example of geographical isolation. Any body of water or land mass that separates populations so that they can no longer interbreed.

Question 21 The ability for an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment. What is “survival of the fittest”?

Question 22 How populations change over time Natural selection or evolution?

Question 23 A species changing genetically over time to become better suited for the environment is doing what. What is evolution? (Double points for micro-evolution)

Question 24 Type of selection pattern that eventually results in no intermediate forms of a trait and can lead to the evolution of two new species from the two extremes that survive. Disruptive selection?

Question 25 This is a structural adaptation that enables one species to resemble another species. What is Mimicry?
