  • False

Pregunta 26

Pregunta
Evolution is the [blank_start]grand unifying theory[blank_end] of biology.
Respuesta
  • grand unifying theory

Pregunta 27

Pregunta
Who first proposed the idea of gradualism in a geological sense?
Respuesta
  • Darwin
  • Hulton
  • Wallace

Pregunta 28

Pregunta
Lamark proposed a mechanism for how life and things change throughout time: the idea of USE AND DISUSE; that body parts used most evolve to become bigger and stronger.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 29

Pregunta
[blank_start]Lyell[blank_end], a geologist, proposed the idea that gradualism is still happening at the same rate. He studied geological records and published "Principles of Geology."
Respuesta
  • Lyell

Pregunta 30

Pregunta
Darwin thought that Lyell's gradualistic ideas could apply biologically too.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 31

Pregunta
Darwin's 3 observations of nature include:
Respuesta
  • Unity of Life
  • Diversity of Life
  • Match between organisms & their environment; descent with modification
  • gradualism

Pregunta 32

Pregunta
Darwinism (the theory of evolution) consists of these major components:
Respuesta
  • perpetual change (always changing)
  • Common descent (living things have unified history, life comes from life)
  • Multiplication of Species (a single ancestral population can split to produce 2 or more populations, becoming different from each other)**
  • Gradualism (populations of organisms accumulate small changes over long periods of time)
  • Natural Selection (mechanism that explains how organisms appear to be designed to meet the demands of their environments "adaptation"
  • none of the above

Pregunta 33

Pregunta
[blank_start]Artificial[blank_end] selection is the process through which humans modify species over many generations by selecting and breeding individuals that possess desired traits.
Respuesta
  • Artificial

Pregunta 34

Pregunta
Darwin's 4 postulates are:
Respuesta
  • differences - individuals within a population differ from one another
  • inheritance - the differences are passed down from parent to offspring
  • some individuals are more successful at surviving and reproducing than others
  • the successful individuals are not merely luck, but succeed because of the variant traits they have inherited and will pass onto their offspring
  • gradualism
  • perpetual change
  • multiplication of species

Pregunta 35

Pregunta
Individuals with favorable traits will, on average, survive better than those with unfavorable traits; known as differential survival.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 36

Pregunta
Individuals with more favorable traits will usually produce more offspring; known as differential reproduction.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 37

Pregunta
[blank_start]Adaptation[blank_end] is an inherited characteristic of an organism that enhances their survival and reproduction in specific environments. A trait that increases an organism's fitness relative to individuals lacking it is called [blank_start]relative fitness[blank_end]; the contribution an individual makes to the gene pool of the next generation via [blank_start]reproduction[blank_end].
Respuesta
  • Adaptation
  • relative fitness
  • reproduction

Pregunta 38

Pregunta
Natural selection is the only process that can naturally create adaptation.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 39

Pregunta
Natural selection operates on [blank_start]individuals[blank_end], selected for/against (more fit, less fit). (not an all or none process)
Respuesta
  • individuals

Pregunta 40

Pregunta
When faced with a changing environment, what options does a population have?
Respuesta
  • adapt (via ns)
  • move/disperse (if there is somewhere to go
  • go extinct, die

Pregunta 41

Pregunta
Natural selection can only act on existing variations
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 42

Pregunta
Evolution is limited by historical constraints.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 43

Pregunta
Adaptations are often compromises
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 44

Pregunta
Chance, natural selection, and the environment all interact.

Respuesta
  • Morphological
  • Biological
  • Ecological
  • Phylogenetic

Pregunta 46

Pregunta

Respuesta
  • Morphological
  • Biological
  • Ecological
  • Phylogenetic

Pregunta 47

Pregunta
Which concept views a species based on its ecological niche? (niche=sum of species using biotic and abiotic resources in its environment)
Respuesta
  • Morphological
  • Biological
  • Ecological
  • Phlyogenetic

Pregunta 48

Pregunta
Which concept focuses on the smallest group of individuals on a phylogenetic tree? Phylogenetic defines a species as the smallest group of individuals that share a common ancestor (e.g. morphology, molecular sequences)
Respuesta
  • Morphological
  • Biological
  • ecological
  • phylogenetic
