1. The half life of carbon 14 is __________years and it decays into ________________.

5,730 Nitrogen 14

2. Limbs of different species that have similar bone placement are examples of what type of comparative anatomy structures?

HOMOLOGOUS

3. Why would there be less transitional fossils in a punctuated equilibrium evolution?

Because there are quick bursts of change with long periods of equilibrium

4. The theory that some organelles (such as mitochondria and chloroplasts) evolved from aerobic bacteria is known as…..________________________ Theory?

ROUND 3

1. What was the purpose of the Urey Miller experiment?

To see if it is possible to make bio-molecules or living material from abiotic factors on primitive Earth

2. List two comparative embryonic structures we’ve studied that scientists see as proof of a common ancestor?

Possible answers: NOTOCORD, cartilage spine, TAIL, gills, MUSCLE BUNDLES

3. When two species without a recent common ancestor live in similar environments or have similar niches, what kind of structures can they have in common?

3. When two species without a recent common ancestor live in similar environments or have similar niches, they can evolve to have what type of structures in common? Analogous

4. Why are amino acid sequences in proteins used as evidence that two organisms are closely related?

Amino acid sequences are determined by DNA sequence, and the closer the DNA sequence, the closer the relation.

5. One section of a phylogenic tree showing closely related species is called……?
