Question
Answer
show The idea that each individual species on the planet was specially created by God and could never fundamentally change.  
🗑
show The theory that natural selection can, over time, take an organism and transform it into a more specialized species of that organism.  
🗑
1c. Macroevolution   show
🗑
1d. Strata   show
🗑
1e. Fossils   show
🗑
1f. Paleontology   show
🗑
show The study of similar structures in different species.  
🗑
show HMS Beagle.  
🗑
show He did not.  
🗑
show The individuals which have the certain qualities to survive the specific elements have a better chance of surviving than individuals without.  
🗑
show The present is the key to the past.  
🗑
6. What age-old concept was Darwin able to dispel with his research?   show
🗑
7. Suppose a herd of horses were living in an area where food near the ground was scarce but there was plenty of food in the trees.   show
🗑
show Macroevolution.  
🗑
show  
🗑
8. (continued) If, over several generations, the fish develop thicker fat layers under their skin for better insulation, is this an example of microevolution or macroevolution?   show
🗑
show In microevolution the genetics are only slightly altered. In macroevolution the genetics are completely changed to another species.  
🗑
show Geological column- Inconclusive because it could be for or against macroevolution given the way in which it was made. Fossil record- Against because of missing links.  
🗑
show Structural homology- Against because the genetics are not alike. Molecular biology- Against because simple to complex percentages aren't there.  
🗑
show Nebraska Man- Turned out to be a pig tooth. Australopithecus afarensis- Claimed to be eons old but research later discovered that it is no different from today's apes.  
🗑
show Supposedly the earliest rock layer, but complex organisms are in it. Only the simplest organisms are supposed to be in the rock.  
🗑
13. What are the four ways a bacterium can become resistant to an antibiotic?   show
🗑
14. If a bacterium has a mutation that makes it resistant to an antibiotic, does information get added to its genetic code?   show
🗑
show  
🗑
show  
🗑
15. (cont.b.) Gly-Ile-Phe-Gly-Arg-His-Ser-Gly-Glu(NH2)-Ala-Glu(NH2)-Arg-Arg-Lys   show
🗑
16. Based on macroevolutionary assumptions, which organism's cytochrome C should most resemble that of a yeast: a kangaroo or a bacterium?   show
🗑
show How species could add genetic information to change to a different species.  
🗑
show Why there are gaps in the fossil record.  
🗑
19. How would an adherent to punctuated equilibrium explain the lack of intermediate links in the fossil record?   show
🗑
show How populations could sexually reproduce, because the mutations would have to be slow enough for them to reproduce and fast enough so that the mutants don't appear in the fossil record.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
