He described this model and the evidence that supported it in a book called On The Origin of Species. Which scientific term is used to describe a testable model that seeks to explain natural phenomena? a. Data c. Observation b. Hypothesis d. Theory 2. ______According to the theory of _____________, mitochondria in cells today are the descendants of aerobic prokaryotes that used oxygen to generate energy. a. Endosymbiosis c. Mutualism b. Ingestion d. Parasitism 3. ______Darwin wrote many of the premises of 'The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection' by noting differences in the _________ of closely related ______________, while studying in the Galapagos Islands. a. feet, finches c. shell shapes, tortoises b. beaks, finches d. dietary preferences, tortoises 4. ______ In 1809, Lamarck developed one of the first theories of evolution called the a. Independent assortment c. Inheritance of variations b. Survival of the fittest d. Inheritance of acquired characteristics 5. ______ Place the developments in evolutionary history in the proper time frame. I. II. III. IV. Charles Darwin writes ‘On the Origin of Species’. Lamarck writes about evolution through acquired traits, using a giraffe as his model. DNA sequencing is developed, allowing the comparison of the genes of different organisms Malthus, an economist, writes about the inevitability that people will exhaust a food supply by reproducing too often a. IV, II, I, III b. I, II, IV, III 6. c. II, I, IV, III d.

How would Lamarck best explain this trait? a. Cheetahs were forced to run as fast as they could to catch prey; the more they ran, the faster they became and passed this on to their offspring. b. Those cheetahs who ran fast were able to get food and survive and reproduce, passing this trait on to offspring. c. Through the survival of the fittest, slow cheetahs died. d. The environment chose fast cheetahs. 10. ______ Which statement BEST explains Lamarck's theory of acquired characteristics as it relates to the neck length of giraffes? a. The DNA of the giraffe coded for longer necks in some individuals b. The variation in giraffe neck sizes led to some being more fit and able to survive c. Giraffes have always had long necks and this is not a characteristic that has ever changed. d. Giraffes slowly stretched their necks to reach leaves higher in the tree and over time their necks got longer.
