Evolution Review Game!! www.fromquarkstoquasars.com
3
Idea that life comes from nonliving things. – Ex: maggots come from rotting meat smsstem.blogspot.com
4
Abiogenesis or spontaneous generation
5
Idea that life comes from preexisting life – Ex: you come from your parents
6
Biogenesis
7
Who conducted the following experiment? 1.One set of jars with meat open 2.One set of jars with meat closed 3.Flies gathered on open meat and laid eggs 4.Maggots appeared only on open meat. www.josephmastropaolo.com
8
Francesco Redi
9
What did Redi’s experiment prove?
10
Maggots come from preexisting life smsstem.blogspot.com
11
Who conducted the following experiment? 1.Heated broth in goose neck flask 2.Let broth sit for days 3.Broth still clear 4.Broke neck off of flask 5.Broth turned cloudy with micorganisms

13
What was the conclusion of Pasteur’s experiment?
14
Biogenesis: Life comes from preexisting life
15
Any trace or remains of an organism that has been preserved by a natural process
16
Fossils www.blog.gurukpo.com
17
How are fossils used as evidence of evolution?
18
Comparing structure of fossils with present day organisms allow us to infer evolutionary relationships greaterancestors.com 2 pts
19
What type of rock are fossils found in?
20
Sedimentary www.studyofoahspe.com
21
Do all organisms that die become fossils?
22
No Why? – Not in sedimentary rock – Decay quickly (rainforest) – Get eaten www.dinosaur-toys-collectors-guide.com room42.wikispaces.com 4pts
23
Method of dating that uses fossils position in sedimentary rock
24
Relative dating http://quizlet.com/4079105/relativeabsolute-age-datingfossils-flash-cards/
25
Law that says: – Since layers are deposited at different times, layers on the bottom are older than on top
26
Law of Superposition bumipunbercerita.blogspot.com
27
Method of dating that gives a precise age
28
Absolute Dating vle.whs.bucks.sch.uk
29
The use of decay of radioactive elements found in organisms to find their absolute age Ex: Carbon dating
30
Radioactive Dating http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktvTqknDobU
31
What is Half-Life?
32
How many years it takes for half of the amount of an element to decay
33
Suppose a radioactive element has a half-life of 10,000 years. If the original amount of the element in an organism is 18g, how old is the organism if the amount of the element is currently 9g? 10,000 years old
34
What if there was only 4.5g left? 20,000
35
What are the two types of evolution?
36
Geological Evolution: the evolution of the Earth itself Organic Evolution: the evolution of living things 2 pts
37
Name 3 pieces of evidence that supports evolution.
38
Fossils Homologous Structures Vestigial Structures Similarities in Embryology Darwin’s Finches Antibiotic Resistance Pesticide Resistance Sickle Cell Anemia and Malaria 3 pts
39
Whose explanation of evolution was correct?
40
Darwin book.pdfchm.net
41
Describe Natural Selection.
42
Individuals survive that have inherited traits adapted to their environment. 1 pt
43
Use Lamarck’s explanations to explain why crabs have large claws io9.com
44
Tendency towards perfection: Crabs want big claws Use and disuse: Crabs use their claws a lot so they got big Acquired characteristics: Crabs passed on the large claw trait to their offspring
45
Use Darwin’s explanations to explain how crabs got large claws.
46
Overproduction: too many crabs Competition/struggle: large fish Genetic variation: some crabs had large/med/small claws Survival of the fittest/Natural Selection: the large claw gave those crabs a better chance of surviving to adulthood to reproduce and therefore passing on their “large claw” gene to offspring EVOLUTION!!!! After several generations the species change and become better adapted to their environment 5 pts
47
What is a gene pool? http://cheezburger.com/2453817600
48
All genes in a population
49
What is a population?
50
Groups of interbreeding individuals that live in the same place at the same time
51
What does this picture represent?
52
Homologous structures
53
What is a vestigial structure and give an example.
54
Structures that no longer function or function less than in an ancestor, but are present because they are left over from an ancestor Ex: tailbone in humans, appendix in humans, wisdom teeth in humans, toe on a boa 2 pts
55
What organism is most closely related to the fish?
56
The salamander. www.eurekalert.org
57
Explain how Darwin’s finches are used as evidence for common ancestry. www.biology-online.org
58
There are 13 species of finches on the Galapagos that descended form 1 common ancestor form the mainland of South America. Similar because inherited similar DNA from common ancestor, different because environmental pressures cause natural selection 3 pts
59
What caused a change in the genetics to make some bacteria resistant to antibiotics?
60
A mutation www.docstoc.com
61
*Be sure you can use Darwin’s explanations to describe this process!!
62
Suppose you were living in tropical Africa. Would you rather be Homozygous dominant for the sickle cell gene, Heterozygous for the sickle cell gene, or homozygous recessive for the sickle cell gene? Why? www.architectural-review.com
63
Individuals heterozygous for the trait are resistant to malaria and therefore have a better chance of surviving to reproduce AA- does not have sickle cell, NOT resistant to malaria Aa- does not have sickle cell, resistant to malaria aa- has sickle cell anemia, resistant to malaria 2pts
64
Natural selection depends on what?
65
Variation Struggle Survival of the “fittest” 3pts
66
Natural Selection is based on the laws of ____________.
67
Laws of GENETICS!! GENES!!!!!!!!!!!! 3pts (because I love genes!!)
68
Explain crossing over yahoosports.tumblr.com
69
Crossing over is the exchange of genes form one homologous chromosome to another www.jogtheweb.com
70
What is the only source of a new gene type?
71
Mutation simpsons.wikia.com
72
What are two methods of isolation? Give examples
73
Geography Ex rivers or mountains Reproduction Mate at different times or places 4 pts
74
How is isolation a source of genetic variation?
75
The isolated population may have different environmental pressure and therefore different genes may be selected for. 2 pts
76
Isolation often leads to speciation. What is speciation?
77
The development of a new species 1 pt
78
How new species can emerge: _________→ _________→ __________→ _________
79
Genetic variation → environmental change→ natural selection→ new species 4 pts
80
Those species that produce many "cheap" offspring and live in unstable environments
81
R-selection 1 pt
82
Give an example of an organism that exhibits k-selection
83
Elephants, monkeys, humans
84
e7xavierbiology.wikispaces.com
85
Is gradualism faster or slower than punctuated equilibrium?
86
Slower 1 pt
87
When a single species or small group of species evolves into many different forms
88
Adaptive Radiation 1 pt www.biology-online.org
89
What type of evolution describes: Grizzly bears and Polar bears have a common bear ancestor, but different climates selected for different climates selected for different variations nickolaylamm.com
90
Divergent Evolution 1 pt
91
Unrelated organisms have similar traits due to similar environments
92
Convergent Evolution 1 pt www.zo.utexas.edu http://www.beatricebiologist.com/2010/11/convergent-evolution.html
93
What type of selection does this graph describe?
94
Directional 1 pt
95
What type of selection results in species having both extremes of a trait; can lead to speciation
96
Disruptive Selection 1 pt
97
Average birth weight is an example of what type of selection?
