3
Topic 1: 200 Question: What does adaptation mean? Give an example
Answer Any variation in DNA that can help an organism survive in it’s environment Back
4
Topic 1: 400 Question: What is directional selection? Give an example
Answer The extreme phenotype is favored. Example: dark and light peppered moths during industrial revolution Back
5
Topic 1: 600 Question: What is fitness? Answer
The ability to survive and reproduce Back
6
Topic 1: 800 Question: What is stabilizing selection? Give an example.
Answer Instead of favoring the extreme trait, it favors the middle trait. Example: A nest with 5 eggs instead of 3 or 10 eggs. Back
7
Topic 1: 1000 Question: What are the 4 parts of natural selection?
Answer Variation: All life forms vary genetically within a population. Inheritance: Genetic traits are inherited from parents and are passed on to offspring. Selection: Organisms with traits that are favorable to their survival and reproduction are more likely to pass on their genes to the next generation. Time: Evolutionary change can happen in a few generations, but major change, such as speciation, often takes many thousands of generations. Back
8
Topic 2: 200 Question: What is the Wallace line? What 2 major things that caused it. Answer An imaginary line that represents a limit of species distribution between Asia and Australia. Continental movement and melting ice. Back
9
Topic 2: 400 Question: Who is Alfred Wallace? Answer
He discovered the Wallace line and was friends with Charles Darwin Back
10
Topic 2: 600 Question: Who is Charles Darwin? Answer
Helped put together the theory of Natural Selection, studied animals on the Galapagos islands. Back
11
Topic 2: 800 Question: What is sexual selection? Answer
Species ability to get a mate. Example: male peacocks Back
12
Topic 2: 1000 Question: What is disruptive selection? Give an example
Answer Both of the extreme traits are favored over the medium traits. Example: Bird beaks in Galapagos during the 1976 drought Back
13
Topic 3: 200 Question: What is artificial selection? Give an example.
Answer Humans breeding species to get the traits that we want. Example: pure breed dogs. Back
14
Topic 3: 400 Question: Do mutations occur because of the surroundings? Why or why not? Answer No, mutations are random. Back
15
Topic 3: 600 Question: Are mutations bad? Why or why not? Answer
No mutations can be beneficial, harmful or doesn’t affect the organism. Back
16
Topic 3: 800 Question: Why was it important to have the lactose persistent mutation before modern times? Answer Then you had a food source during a drought and didn’t have diarrhea and die. Back
17
Topic 3: 1000 Question: Explain one example of a bird beak adaptation
Answer Answers will vary Back
18
Topic 4: 200 Question: What is a mutation? Answer
A random change in DNA sequence Back
19
Topic 4: 400 Question: How did dark colored mouse in the Rock pocket mouse lab appear in the population? Answer DNA letters had a mutation in the coding Back
20
Topic 4: 600 Question: In the Stickleback fish lab, why did no pelvic spines increase the fish’s fitness in freshwater? Answer Small predators couldn’t grab on to their spine Back
21
Topic 4: 800 Question: In the Stickleback fish lab, why did pelvic spines increase the fish’s fitness in the ocean? Answer Big fish would get poked when trying to swallow Back
22
Topic 4: 1000 Question: What things about finches did Rosemary and Peter Grant study in the Galapagos Islands? Answer They studied the finches songs and appearance to see if finch stayed within their species. They also studied their beak sizes and what food they consumed. Back
23
Topic 5: 200 Question: What is the only mammal that can drink milk into adulthood? Answer Humans Back
24
Topic 5: 400 Question: In the rock pocket mouse lab, what colored mouse would you except if a huge sand storm blew over the lava rock? Answer Answers will vary. One possibility: light mouse could live on the sand/lava temporarily. Back
25
Topic 5: 600 Question: What parts of the world had the lactose mutation? Why? Answer Finland and parts of Africa. Because their society was centered around cows. Back
26
Topic 5: 800 Question: What type of sketches did both Darwin and Wallace come up with after studying animals on their different journeys? Answer They had similar sketches of family trees/lineages of species. Back
27
Topic 5: 1000 Question: During the lactose tolerance test, what should happen to your glucose level if you are lactase persistent? Answer Your blood glucose levels should increase Back
28
