Finches ________________ _____________, or remnants of organs or structures that had a function in an earlier ancestor. Vestigial Structures What did Darwin notice about the type of bird that he observed? Different beak sizes A dog had her tail bobbed shortly after birth. This is an example of what kind of trait? Acquired The difference in the physical traits of an individual from those of other individuals in the group to which it belongs is ____________. Variation The separation of populations by barriers such as rivers, mountains, or bodies of water is called _____________. Geographic Isolation Body parts that are similar in structure (have a common ancestor) but perform different functions are called ______________________. Homologous Structures The idea that each living species has descended with changes from other species over time is called ______________________.

DNA The combined genetic information of all members of a particular population is the population’s ___________ _____________. Gene pool Darwin journeyed to the Galapagos on the HMS ____________________. Beagle When dog breeders breed the two strongest dogs, this is an example of __________ ______________. Artificial Selection What is the name of Charles Darwin’s work? On the Origin of Species When species cannot interbreed because of mountains or other barriers, this is _________________ isolation. Geographic Darwin’s Theory of Evolution is also known as “___________ of the _____________.” Survival of the Fittest A mechanism by which individuals that have inherited beneficial adaptations produce more offspring on average than do other individuals is known as _____________ ____________ Natural Selection What is a feature that allows an organism to better survive in its environment? Adaptation The Galapagos Islands are located off of the coast of which country? Ecuador in South America Who proposed the theory on the evolution of acquired characteristics?
