Questão
Darwinism (the theory of evolution) consists of these major components:
Responda
  • 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)**

Questão 34

Questão
Darwin's 4 postulates are:
Responda
  • 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

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

Questão 37

Questão
[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].

Responda
  • individuals

Questão 40

Questão
When faced with a changing environment, what options does a population have?
Responda
