Questão 28
Questão
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.
Questão 29
Questão
[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."
Questão 30
Questão
Darwin thought that Lyell's gradualistic ideas could apply biologically too.
Questão 31
Questão
Darwin's 3 observations of nature include:
Questão 32
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)**
-
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
Questão 33
Questão
[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.
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
Questão 35
Questão
Individuals with favorable traits will, on average, survive better than those with unfavorable traits; known as differential survival.
Questão 36
Questão
Individuals with more favorable traits will usually produce more offspring; known as differential reproduction.
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
-
Adaptation
-
relative fitness
-
reproduction
Questão 38
Questão
Natural selection is the only process that can naturally create adaptation.
Questão 39
Questão
Natural selection operates on [blank_start]individuals[blank_end], selected for/against (more fit, less fit). (not an all or none process)

When faced with a changing environment, what options does a population have?
Questão 41
Questão
Natural selection can only act on existing variations

Evolution is limited by historical constraints.
Questão 43
Questão
Adaptations are often compromises
