Darwin published
this book in 1859
What is
The Origin of Species?
It is why organisms compete
for limited resources
What is
“organisms produce more
offspring than can survive?”
It is what individuals with
traits that helped them
survive in their local
environments do
What is
“pass the survival traits to
their offspring?”
Darwin’s theory that natural
selection does not
demonstrate progress;
rather, it merely results from
a species’ ability to survive
local conditions at a specific
time
What is
Descent with Modification?
Darwin observed that
populations of this species of
bird specialized over time to
use the resources offered by
their particular Galapagos
Island habitat …an example
of Adaptive Radiation
What are Finches?
This type of structural
adaptation is illustrated by
the viceroy butterfly looking
very similar to the monarch
butterfly
What is MIMICRY?
A change in the DNA of an
organism
What is
a MUTATION?
It happens when a mutation
occurs in a somatic cell
What is
“the mutation disappears
from the population when the
organism dies?”
A structure, behaviour or
physiological process that
helps an organism survive
and reproduce in a particular
environment
What is
an ADAPTATION?
It is where some genetic
information is expressed
What is the PHENOTYPE?
Homologous structures are
similar because they were
inherited from this
What is
a COMMON ANCESTOR?
The fossil record,
biogeography, anatomy,
embryology and relationships
in DNA all provide evidence
of this
What is EVOLUTION?
The study of the past and
present geographical
distribution of species
populations
What is
BIOGEOGRAPHY?
This cell type first appeared
in the fossil record 3.8 to 3.5
BYA
What are
PROKARYOTIC CELLS?
A fossil that shows
intermediary links between
groups of organisms and
shares characteristics
common to two now separate
groups
What is
TRANSITIONAL FOSSIL?
Environmental conditions that
select for certain
characteristics of individuals
and select against other
characteristics
What is
SELECTIVE PRESSURE?
In farming, it is easier to
manage this types of field
with only one plant type
What is
a MONOCULTURE?
Selective breeding of this wild
plant has been used to create
many common foods
including broccoli,
cauliflower and Brussels
sprouts
What is
the WILD MUSTARD PLANT?
The process by which
characteristics of a
population change over many
generations as organisms
with heritable traits survive
and reproduce, passing their
traits to offspring
What is
NATURAL SELECTION?
It occurs when humans
exert pressure on
natural processes to
select organisms for
certain and desired
traits
What is
ARTIFICIAL SELECTION?
It is the study of ancient life
through by examining
fossils
What is
PALEONTOLOGY?
The idea, whose “name” was
first used by John Spencer,
that the organisms that are
the fittest leave the most
offspring, so those
organisms win the struggle
What is
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST?
An idea that body parts that
are not used or become
unnecessary for survival
eventually disappear
What is
USE and DISUSE?
Charles Lynch suggested
this theory geological
changes are slow,
continuous and operate at
the same rates both past
and present
What is
UNIFORMITARIANISM?
The two British
naturalists who,
although working
separately, at nearly the
same time provided a
similar theory to explain
how species change
over time
What are
CHARLES DARWIN
and
ALFRED RUSSEL WALLACE?
