  3. Question 1 What is Lamarck’s Theory of Evolution? This scientist’s theory states that acquired traits can be passed on to offspring (ex. Neck stretching results in children with longer necks.)

  4. Question 2 Who is Darwin? Natural selection theory was proposed by this scientist.

  5. Question 3 What is catastrophism? This theory states that many changes have occurred on Earth due to natural disasters.

  6. Question 4 LaMarck’s theory of evolution. An example of this theory is: “If you get big muscles, you will pass them on to your children”.

  7. Question 5 What is variation, adaptation, struggle to survive survival of the fittest, organisms overproduce, descent with modification (any paired combination of the above). List two points included in the theory of evolution by natural selection.

  8. Question 6 Homologous structure? Type of structure: same internal structure but different function or external appearance.

  9. Question 7 Analogous structure? Type of structure: Same function (like flying) but different structure.

  10. Question 8 Appendix, inner eyelid for example? Give an example of a vestigial structure.

  11. Question 9 What is embryology? This study of the development of early life is one type of evidence for evolution.

  12. Question 10 What is biochemical evidence? This evidence shows the genetic relationships between common ancestors.

  13. Question 11 What is Coevolution. Examples could be – hummingbird & flower, ants & acacia

  14. Question 12 What is convergent evolution? Type of evolution: Organisms of different ancestry have similar phenotypes.

  15. Question 13 What is divergent evolution? Organisms that are similar become different over time according to this type of evolution.

  16. Question 14 What is adaptive radiation? Galapagos Finches and your birds are examples of this type of divergent evolution.

  17. Question 15 Gradualism and punctuated equilibrium Two patterns of evolution which are graphically represented below.

  18. Question 16 What is gene flow? The process of transferring genes among different populations is known as:

  19. Question 17 What is speciation? The formation of a new species is called:

  20. Question 18 What is behavioral isolation? (Will also accept reproductive isolation. Species specific bird rituals & courtship dances are examples of what?

  21. Question 19 What is the ability to interbreed and have fertile offspring? Two factors that define a species.

  22. Question 20 Any body of water or land mass that separates populations so that they can no longer interbreed. Give an example of geographical isolation.

  23. Question 21 What is “survival of the fittest”? The ability for an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment.

  24. Question 22 What is evolution? Process of biological change of populations over a period of time

  25. Question 23 What is speciation? • The rise of two or more species from one existing species.

  26. Question 24 Disruptive selection? Type of selection pattern that eventually results in no intermediate forms of a trait and can lead to the evolution of two new species from the two extremes that survive.

  27. Question 25 What is Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? If the following factors are not occurring, then a population is said to be in this condition: genetic drift, gene flow, mutation, sexual selection, natural selection

  28. Final Jeopardy Match the parts of the Hardy-Weinberg equations with the following terms: 1. Dominant allele 2. Recessive allele 3. Heterozygous genotype 4. Homozygous dominant genotype 5. Homozygous recessive genotype

  29. Final Jeopardy Topic is Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
