What would be involved in natural selection? A difference between artificial selection and natural selection would be: Darwin's theory of natural selection to explain evolution is also known as What ideas were most commonly held in the eighteenth century? What is the scala naturae? An idea that could be traced back to Plato is that Linnaeus developed his classification system for organisms according to What naturalist wrote a 44-volume natural history on plants and animals, and also suggested migration, environmental influences, isolation, and overcrowding might affect how organisms descend with modifications? Erasmus Darwin, in his discussion of evolutionary possibilities, included Cuvier addressed the comparative anatomy of fossils in a theory of life changes called The Greek root words meaning "ancient," "having existed," and "study of" form the basis for the term The Greek root word underlying "catastrophism" means Lamarck's theory of evolution included the idea that Cutting off the tails of mice over several generations should cause the tails of their offspring to become shorter, according to the ideas of which of these scientists? Who was the author of the book Principles of Geology, which presented arguments to support a theory of geological change, proposed by James Hutton, that the earth was subject to slow but continuous erosion and uplift? Hutton's theory of geological change include Most of Darwin's observations about changes in species over time and in different environments took place in and near Natural selection was independently proposed as a means of evolution by Darwin and The Greek root words meaning "life," "earth," and "writing" form the basis for the term Darwin's observation that there were Patagonian hares but no rabbits in South America was most closely related to his consideration of What is a line of evidence considered by Darwin in his development of the theory of natural selection is The organisms examined by Darwin on the Galápagos Islands that were most important in his development of the theory of natural selection were Which are the preconditions in a population where natural selection is at work? The Latin root words providing the meaning underlying the term "adaptation" mean Newly-found fossils like Archaeopteryx offer additional evidence linking Transitional forms are seen in the fossil record that link all of these groups The fossil record clearly shows a series of species that link very early forms with the modern The Greek root word for "homologous" means Homologous structures such as the bones in wings, flippers, and arms are most closely concerned with Birds and insects both have wings, but we do not consider this similarity as evidence of relatedness because Comparisons are made among a broad range of organisms for similarities in amino acid sequences. However, it is necessary to use In comparing the number of differences in amino acids for cytochrome c: between a moth and a rattlesnake there are 31 different amino acids in the sequence, between a moth and a dog there are only 25, and there are 6 differences between a dog and a horse. Therefore, The post Darwinian view of the world included Among the evidence that Darwin examined When previous adaptations in a species are no longer useful to a changed environment, Darwin observed that The organisms that are most fit in the population Darwin was the only scientist to propose the theory of natural selection. Evolution can be described as. Did Darwin produced the first known theory to explain evolution? Linnaeus, who developed the binomial system of naming species, was he a strong supporter of the theory of evolution? _________________, Charles Darwin's grandfather, suggested the possibility of evolutionary descent in his writings. Darwin considered ____________________ in a population to be the raw materials of evolution. Chapter 15 Review 44. Describe The Galápagos Islands’ birds 45. How did Lyell contribute to the theory of evolution? 46. ________________________ was the first one to consider environment, migration, overcrowding, and isolation of populations as factors that could influence evolution. 47. A major ____________________ revolution occurred with the development of Darwin's theory of natural selection to explain the evolution of species. 48. Explain Lamarck's theory of evolution. 49. Briefly describe Darwin's theory of natural selection and its consequences in a population. 50. Discuss why, though Darwin and Wallace published the theory of natural selection at the same time, Darwin is usually considered its originator.
