Cite information. O Step by step explanation of how apopulation can change over time, using your example O Descriptlon of Inherlted varlatlon withiin the populatlon O Explanation of why some individuals are better able to survive and produce offspring O A description of the adaptation that is being favored by natural selection O Data to support explanations
1. Cells are the basic unit of life. 2. Genes are the basic units for passing traits from parent to offspring. 3. Evolution by natural selection is the process that has led to the great diversity of species on Earth. 4. Living things maintain the environment within their cells and bodies. 5. Living things have the ability to acquire and transform energy.
10. Many traits seen in organisms are wildly inefficient and prone to malfunction or injury. Why does this finding support the idea of evolution rather than an omnipotent designer? What would we expect for these traits in the intelligent design model? 11. Ants and termites both have highly complex social colonies with queens, workers, and soldiers. Ants evolved from wasps while termites evolved from cockroaches. In this context, are ants vs termites an example of convergent or parallel evolution? How do you know?
1. Why would a population with no genetic variation and unlimited resources never be expected to evolve?
1. Write a micro-theme using and explaining the following terms. a. “Survived of the fittest” b. Adaption c. Evolution
3. If you put ALL species on Earth EVERYWHERE all at once (no more island effect), what would happen to biodixersity. a) globally on į, short term (within a minute of doing it, before anybody died) and cle ii. long term (a few years, but before any evolutionary processes could proceed?) b) locally on the short term (within a minute of doing it, before anybody died) c) locally on the long term (after a few of years, but before any evolutionary processes could proceed))
12. Which can bring new traits to a population and why? 1. natural selection - because it increases the frequency of adaptive alleles in a population over time 2. natural selection and mutation because both increase the frequency of adaptive alleles in a population over time 3. mutation - because it increases the frequency of adaptive alleles in a population over time 4. natural selection and mutation because both make new alleles 5. natural selection - because it makes new alleles 6. mutation - because it makes new alleles
22) if organisms evolve, it's because of natural selection True or False 23)
Which of the following is not a component of Darwins theory as he understood it? a. Some individuals in a population survive longer than others. b. Some individuals in a population reproduce more thanothers. c. Heritable variations allow some individuals to compete moresuccessfully for resources. d. Mutations in genes produce new variations in a population. e. Some new variations are passed to the next generation.
Houseflies develop through a series of programmed stages from egg, to larva, to pupa, to flying adult. This series of stages is called: a. artificial selection. b. respiration. c. homeostasis. d. a life cycle. e. metabolism.
17. Which of the following statements best explains the Theory of Natural Selection? * a. Organs that are not used may disappear, while organs that are constantly used may develop b. In nature, the organism with desirable characteristics may survive, while those weaker traits may not c. Organisms develop desirable structures to survive in a given environment d. Acquired characteristics of parents can be passed on to offspring 18. Larry Daley is a paleontologist found out some Central American Acacia species that have hollow thorns and pores at the bases of their leaves that secrete nectar. He used the species to understand the history and origin of the place. From the given situation, the Central American Acacia species is an example of _____________. * a. evolution b. fossil c. mutation d. coevolution
1. The majority of antibiotic use in the United States is for agriculture, primarily in livestock. Why is this a problem? 2. Given the fact that humans are the ones producing and distributing pesticides, why do we call the development of pesticide resistance natural selection rather than artificial selection?
