Over time animals may change behavior or physical appearance in response to
changes in their environment.
What is the process by which individuals that are
better adapted to their environment survive and
reproduce more successfully that others do?
This process often begins by a portion of a population becoming physically or
geographically isolated
A specific characteristic that can
be passed from parent to offspring is
called a…
What process could farmers use to produce
vegetables that will grow well in a specific
climate or in specific soil types?
If two organisms have similar traits and DNA, they probably share a
common
A spider produces hundreds of eggs; only a few survive. This is an example
of…
The remains of a once-living organism found in layers of rock formed by minerals seeping into the
organisms remains is called a…
The fact that an organism’s
offspring are not identical is known
as
What does speciation create?
The process by which populations
slowly change over time is called…
Sometimes part of a population moves away from the rest. What is
this called?
Darwin could not answer all of the questions regarding his new theory because he
didn’t know about what scientific field of study?
What was the name of the ship that Darwin traveled on during his expeditions and what Islands did he travel to?
There were two scientists that greatly influenced Darwin’s thoughts in his creation of the Theory of Evolution. Who were they and what did they study?
Modern ocean-dwelling mammals that are descended from ancient land-dwelling mammals
Groups of individuals of the same species
living in the same area
When two isolated groups of a species
begin to adapt differently to their
environment
A scientific idea that is supported by many observations and
pieces of evidence
A timeline of life provided by the
remains or imprints of dead organisms
Process of separation,
adaptation, and division
Process consisting of overproduction, inherited variation, the struggle to survive, and successful
reproduction
Naturalist who proposed that
evolution occurs through natural
selection
A group of organisms that can mate with one
another to produce fertile offspring
Likely reason that two organisms share
similar DNA and similar traits
