  4. Evolution $100 Question: Evolution happens to __________ not __________ Answer: Populations not individuals

  5. Evolution $200 Question: What is the definition of evolution Answer: A theory (explanation) supported by evidence for how populations change over time

  6. Evolution $300 Question: Who is the father of Evolution? Answer: Charles Darwin

  7. Evolution $400 Question: Evolution can only occur if there is differences in the population known as ______ _______. Answer: Genetic Variety

  8. Evolution $500 Question: The more alike two different organisms are, the more recently they shared a __________ ___________. Answer: Common Ancestor

  9. Natural Selection $100 Question: What is the definition of Natural Selection? Answer: The survival and reproduction of the organisms that are genetically best fit for their environment

  10. Natural Selection $200 Daily Double Question: The variety of dog and cat breeds that we have today are a product of _________ _____________. Answer: Artificial Breeding (Selective Breeding)

  11. Natural Selection $300 Question: What are the name of the islands where Darwin studied and gathered much of his evidence for Natural Selection? Answer: The Galapagos Islands

  12. Natural Selection $400 Question: If tall individuals were favored in a population we would have an example for this type of selection Answer: Directional selection

  13. Natural Selection $500 Question: A little child catches a fly and pulls its wings off. The fly actually lives a better life, but does not pass its lack of wings on to its offspring because the loss of wings is an _________ _______. Answer: Acquired Trait

  14. Adaptations $100 Question: What adaptations are shown in the picture? Answer: Wings allowing for flight

  15. Primates Adaptations $200 Question: A variation in an organism that helps it survive is called an ________________ Answer: Adaptation

  16. Primates Adaptations $300 Question : When an organism matches its surroundings in order to hide, this is an example of what type of adaptation? Answer: Camouflage

  17. Primates Adaptations $400 Question: When an organism chooses not to mate with another type of the same species it is this type of speciation? Answer: Behavioral

  18. Primates Adaptations $500 Question: When species are separated by a part of the landscape and cannot come in contact it is known as this type of speciation? Answer: Geographic

  19. Evidence for Evolution $100 Question: The hip bones of a dolphin and the tailbone of a human are examples of what? Answer: Vestigial Structures

  20. Evidence for Evolution $200 Question: Give an example of a structure that is homologous to a cat’s paw. Answer: Answers vary. Dog’s paw, human arm, bat wing, whale flipper

  21. Evidence for Evolution $300 Question: Give the definition of an homologous structure. Answer: Body parts that have different development but similar structure

  22. Evidence for Evolution $400 Question:  When two organisms share a similar DNA sequence, what does that tell scientists? Answer: they are closely related

  23. Evidence for Evolution $500 Question: In embryology, when the embryos are very similar to each other, this means… ? Answer: the organisms had a common ancestor

  24. Misc. $100 Question: What is the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment. Answer: fitness

  25. Misc. $200 Question: This organism is thought to be the first life on Earth? Answer: heterotrophic prokaryotes (bacteria)

  26. Misc. $300 Question: Organisms that look alike and can reproduce are called this. Answer: A species

  27. Misc. $400 Question: Why was the appearance of autotrophs on earth so important to life as we now know it? Answer: they produced oxygen that built up in our atmosphere

  28. Misc. $500 Question: Why, in evolutionary terms, would it be beneficial for new individuals to come into a population? Answer: Gene flow brings in new DNA, which brings about evolution.

  29. Final Jeopardy Topic Evolution

  30. Final Jeopardy Question • Gazelles on the African plains are often hunted by the top predators. Over time, the gazelles have evolved to have very large eyes on either side of their head and very large ears. • How do their eyes and ears factor into their survival? • Explain how, through Natural Selection, gazelles have evolved to have these kind of eyes and ears.

  31. Final Jeopardy Answer • The eyes on either side of the head help them to see the predators coming from all directions. The large ears help them to hear the predators. • Over time, the gazelles that had poor hearing and vision were killed off. Those with better vision and hearing survived to pass those traits on to their offspring.
