Recap evolution P. 1-3 

Give your definition of evolution

Charles Darwin 

Why didn't the people believe in his theory? 

We call this creationism. 

A.Published 'On the Origin of species'
B.Trip with the HMS Beagle
C.Visited Galapagos
D.Noticed diversity
E.Concluded species change
F.Darwin arrived back in England

Natural selection is best described as:

1. a change in an organism in response to a need of that organism
2. a process of nearly constant improvement that leads to an organism that is nearly perfect
3. differences in survival rates as a result of different inherited characteristics
4. inheritance of characteristics acquired during the life of an organism

A phenotype that improves an organism’s chance of survival in their environment is considered a(n):

1. natural selection
2. adaptation
3. speciation
4. extinction

Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics. This is an example of

1. Structural adaptation.
2. Physiological adaptation.

Which term refers to the process by which individuals that are better suited to the environment survive and reproduce therefore passing down their genes to their offspring?

1. Evolution
2. Variation
3. Adaptation
4. Natural Selection

Individuals undergo evolution.

1. True
2. False

HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURES

ANALOGOUS STRUCTURES

Body parts that have lost their original function through evolution are called

1. analogous structures
2. artificial structures
3. homologous structures
4. vestigial structures

Homologous structures are organs or skeletal elements of animals and organisms that suggest their connection to a common ancestor. These structures do not have to look exactly the same, or have the same function. True or false

1. True
2. False

Birds and butterflies both have wings. Are these wings homologous or analogous structures?

1. Homologous
2. Analogous

Homologous & analogous structures are examples of ...

1. Direct evidence
2. Indirect evidence

What is different between artificial selection and natural selection

1. Nothing, its basically the same
2. Natural selection has to do with survival, artificial selection not always
3. Artificial selection is dependent on nature alone, natural selection is not.
4. Natural selection is done by humans, artificial selection not

Which of the following is NOT a component of the theory of evolution by natural selection?

1. competition for food and space
2. variation among species
3. inheritance of acquired characteristics
4. survival and reproduction

The dog breeds we have today were developed through:

1. natural selection
2. artificial selection (selective breeding)
3. sexual selection
4. acquired selection

These organs are

1. Homologous
2. Analogous
3. Vestigial

These organs are

1. Homologous
2. Analogous
3. Vestigial

What form of structural adaptation do you see?
