This naturalist hypothesized that species change over time
Who is Charles Darwin? This naturalist hypothesized that species change over time by natural selection. Row 1, Col 1
4
This memory device is used to remember the five strands
What is FACE + G? This memory device is used to remember the five strands of evidence of evolution. 1,2
5
These preserved ancient remains usually follow the
What are fossils? These preserved ancient remains usually follow the law of superposition. 1,3
6
do NOT allow this to occur, because they breed animals
What is natural selection? Dog and horse breeders do NOT allow this to occur, because they breed animals to pass on particular traits. 1,4
7
This is an explanation for many observations that have
What is a theory? This is an explanation for many observations that have data to support them. 2,1
8
Fossils can be dated in two ways. Name the more accurate
What is radioactive dating? Fossils can be dated in two ways. Name the more accurate of the two. 2,2
9
The order of the four eras from most recent to most ancient.
What is Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic, & Precambrian? The order of the four eras from most recent to most ancient. 2,3
10
Darwin’s finches underwent adaptive radiation because of
What is geographic isolation? Darwin’s finches underwent adaptive radiation because of this type of reproductive isolation. 2,4
11
This results from an organism with inherited adaptations
What is survival of the fittest? This results from an organism with inherited adaptations that gives it an advantage in a particular environment. 3,1
12
Ear muscles that allow the ear to move like a dog are described
What are vestigial organs? Ear muscles that allow the ear to move like a dog are described as this for humans, because we do not need to move our ears. 3,2
13
These organisms are like the first organisms on Earth.
What are anaerobic prokaryotes or bacteria? These organisms are like the first organisms on Earth. The first organisms left microfossil evidence during the Precambrian era . 3,3
14
Gradualism is the opposite theory for this type of macroevolution.
What is punctuated equilibrium? Gradualism is the opposite theory for this type of macroevolution. 3,4
15
observations on these islands
What are the Galapagos Islands? Darwin made many observations on these islands that inspired his book, The Origin of Species. 4,1
16
All cells have DNA or RNA to transmit genetic information.
What is chemical evidence? All cells have DNA or RNA to transmit genetic information. This is what type of evidence of evolution? 4,2

What is China? Location where new human race was discovered a few weeks ago.. 4,3
18
Derived characters are shown as dots on the main line of
What is a cladogram? Derived characters are shown as dots on the main line of these graphs that show evolutionary relationships. 4,4
19
Darwin’s finches are an
What is adaptive radiation? Darwin’s finches are an example of this process of evolution. 5,1
20
Similar fossils on different continents is this type of
What is geographical evidence? Similar fossils on different continents is this type of evidence for evolution. 5,2
21
The dinosaurs disappeared from
What is mass extinction? The dinosaurs disappeared from Earth due to the effects of this event. 5,3
22
whales, and dolphins are examples of this process.
What is convergent evolution? Fish, penguins, seals, whales, and dolphins are examples of this process. 5,4
