Chapter 14-15 Evolution

Front 1

the idea that living things come from other living things.

Back 1

Biogenesis

Front 2

Before the 17th century, people thought that__________could occur.

Back 2

Spantaneous Generations

Front 3

disproved the idea of spontaneous generation and he allowed meat to decay in an open jar, then observed the maggots which appeared

Back 3

Redi

Front 4

invented the microscope and allowed many scientists to observe microorganisms.

Back 4

Leeuwenhoek

Front 5

performed an experiment to test spontaneous generation of microorganisms and concluded that broth became contaminated when microorganisms from the air entered the flask.

Back 5

Spallanzani

Front 6

Many scientists objected to his methods and claimed that he boiled the flasks too long and destroyed the “_________________” inside the flasks

Back 6

Vital Force

Front 7

performed an experiment that convinced many people that spontaneous generation does not exist and used a curved neck flask to trap microorganisms from the air.

Back 7

Pasteur

Front 8

It was recognized that all living things arise only from ___________________________ of the same type.

Back 8

living things

Front 9

The estimated age of the Earth is more than

Back 9

4 Billion Years

Front 10

Scientists have drilled deep into its many layers to establish a fairly complete picture of its ________________ history

Back 10

geologic

Front 11

Absolute Dating is the process of determining a computed ________________________
in archaeology and geology.

Back 11

numerical age

Front 12

Relative Dating provides only an ____________________________, not when they occur. __________________________________________ in rock is an example

Back 12

order of events

Fossil layers in Rock

Front 13

Absolute dating Methods of establishing the age of materials include the technique known as _____________________ _____________.

Back 13

Radioactive Dating

Front 14

The length of time it takes for one-half of the sample of an isotope to decay is

Back 14

half-life

Front 15

The half life of carbon 14

Back 15

5,730 years

Front 16

Relative Dating. Most fossils are found in ______________________________ rock which forms at relatively low temperatures and pressure to help preserve the organism.

Back 16

mud,sand,and clay

Front 17

hypothesized about the origin of life on earth. He stated what the atmosphere of early earth was like

Back 17

Oparin

Front 18

tested the hypothesis by experimenting. He built a chamber that simulated early earth. In his experiment he was able to create simple amino acids which are the building blocks of life.

Back 18

Miller & Urey

Front 19

were probably the first organisms on earth

Back 19

Prokaryotes

Front 20

theory states that eukaryotic evolved from prokaryotic cells through a symbiotic relationship.

Back 20

endosymbotic theory

Front 21

is the theory that refers to an orderly succession that species change over time. Today’s species evolved from ancient forms of life.

Back 21

Evolution

Front 22

proposed that when organisms use a particular trait of the body, the acquired trait would develop in its offspring

Back 22

Jean Lamarack

Front 23

is the “father of evolution.” He pointed out that variations of body parts are inherited by DNA (not acquired by using or disusing)

Back 23

Charles Darwin

Front 24

which states that the most fit organisms in a species will live and reproduce (Survival of the fittest)

Back 24

Natural Selection

Front 25

convinced many scientists that evolution occurs by means of Natural Selection

Back 25

The origins the spieces

Front 26

are evidence of an organism that lived long ago

Back 26

Fossil Record

Front 27

The forelimbs of several vertebrates are all derived from the same embryological structures – this indicates a recent common ancestor

Back 27

Homologous Structures

Front 28

Different embryological development; Different internal anatomy

Back 28

Analogous Structures

Front 29

The more similar the more related.Has tails and gil slits

Back 29

Vestigial Structures

Front 30

similarites amongst organisms organism related have been indentified through DNA & marco molecule analysis itemoglobin

Back 30

Embryology

Front 31

Similarities in DNA is considered the strongest & most recent supporting evidence for the theory of evolution

Back 31

Biochemical Analysis

Front 32

the change of 2 or more species in close association with each other. Each of these species change to help out each other. (Long nose of hummingbirds with flowers)

Back 32

Coevolution Evolution

Front 33

when 2 or more species become dissimilar because they move to different environments. They must adapt and change in order to live in their new environment

Back 33

Divergent Evolution

Front 34

when 2 different species become similar because they adapt to the same kind of environment

Back 34

Convergent Evolution
