Bio Evolution

Front 1

- is the subfield of biology that studies the evolutionary processes that produced the diversity of life on Earth, starting from a single common ancestor.

Back 1

Evolutionary biology

Front 2

Changes is living organism over time

Back 2

Evolution

Front 3

It explains how certain organims descended from ancient organisms

Front 4

is a double-chain biopolymer that consists of two twisted chain-like molecules held together by organic molecules.

DNA

Front 5

Give the factors affecting biodiversity

Back 5

Area and climate

Front 6

Phenomenon that shapes earth surface

Back 6

Pangaea, volcanism, weathering, erosion, deposition

Front 7

Large areas contain more species than small areas

Back 7

Area

Front 8

The number of species increases from poles toward the equator

Back 8

Climate

Front 9

bones and other hard parts are replaced by minerals carried in solution by groundwater.

Back 9

Mineralization

Front 10

It is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having completely transitioned to stone by the process of

Back 10

Permineralization

Front 11

It is the change in inherited traits in a population over generations.

Back 11

Evolution

Front 12

The main cause of adaptive evolution

Back 12

Natural selection

Front 13

Which refers the process by which populations of organisms with variations that help them survive in their environments live longer, compete better, and reproduce more than those that do not have the variations?

Back 13

Natural selection

Front 14

What inherited trait that increases organism's chance of surviving and reproducing in its environment

Back 14

Adaptation

Front 15

Breeding of organism for desired characteristics

Back 15

Selective breeding

Front 16

Changes to the gene pool of a single population. Changes can occur over a short period of time.

Back 16

Microevolution

Front 17

If the two population can no longer interbreed, this results in new species

Back 17

Macroevolution

Front 18

Example of micro and macro evolution

Back 18

Micro- dog

Macro- Darwin's finches

Front 19

It is a mechanism of evolution that shows genetic information.

Back 19

DNA

Front 20

It is in the evidence of evolution that says the skeleton of gorillas are almost very similar to humans anatomical features.

Back 20

Comparative anatomy

Front 21

What are the 5 evidences of evolution that teacher have shown/discussed?

Back 21

– Similar genes, comparative anatomy, homology, fossil record, geography

Front 22

A change in the genetic structure of a population. Also refers to the appearance of new species

Back 22

Evolution

Front 23

States that geologic changes occurs suddenly

Back 23

Catastrophism

Front 24

Rock strata demonstrate that geologic processes, which are still occurring today, add up over long periods of time to cause great change

Back 24

Uniformitarianism

Front 25

Volcanoes, floods, and earthquakes examples of catastrophic events that once believed responsible for mass extinctions and the formation of all landform.

Back 25

Catastrophism

Front 26

Canyons carved by rivers show gradual change. Gradualism is the idea that changes on Earth occurred by small steps over long period of time

Back 26

Gradualism

Front 27

Who proposed that the earth is dynamic and changing

Back 27

James Hutton

Front 28

Who proposed uniformitarianism

Back 28

Charles lyell

Front 29

Challenge the idea that the earth was the center of the universe or heliocentric

Back 29

Copernicus

Front 30

Who established the laws of physics motion and gravity

Back 30

Keppler, Descartes and Newton

Front 31

Darwin and wallace independently proposed a theory of biological evolution and called it

Back 31

Natural selection

Front 32

Key concepts of evolution

Back 32

Essentialism

Chain of being

Mutation

Natural selection

Front 33

The ideal reality in which the perceived reality is compared and contrasted

Back 33

Essentialism

Front 34

A hierarchy of entities from the simplest to most complex anticipated the later rise of taxonomy

Back 34

Great chain of being

Front 35

He developed a system of classification and laid the basis for taxonomy and binomial nomenclature used today

Back 35

Carolus linnaeus

Front 36

Introduced the concept of extinction and the theory of catastrophism

Back 36

Georges cuvier

Front 37

Developed the theories of uniformitarianism and deep time

Back 37

Charles Lyell

Front 38

Natural selection is based on four main points

Back 38

Variation

Natural selection

Survival of the fittest

Isolation
