Topic One: Adaptation<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • What are some theories or ideas related to the origins of life?<\/li>\n
  • What is the fundamental unit of life and what are the activities of this unit?<\/li>\n
  • What is an adaptation?<\/li>\n
  • How does an adaptation become favourable?<\/li>\n
  • What are examples of different types of adaptations<\/li>\n
  • How could observed adaptations be associated with a theory?<\/li>\n
  • What happens if a species fails to adapt?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Topic two: The Process of Evolution<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • What is the difference between a process and a mechanism?<\/li>\n
    • Why can the term \u201cevolution\u201d be interpreted several ways?<\/li>\n
    • How can one observe that a change has occurred?<\/li>\n
    • What patterns can be hypothesized with changes in<\/strong>:<\/li>\n
    • fossils: what sort of changes can fossils have and how can observations be misleading?<\/li>\n
    • embryology: how are embryos associated with family trees?<\/li>\n
    • anatomy: What is the significance of homologous and analogous structures and how could they be linked to ideas about convergence and divergence?<\/li>\n
    • physiology How are tissue structures and functions related to evolution?<\/li>\n
    • biochemistry How are proteins and amino acid sequences associate with DNA and how species are related?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      • What are some possible sources of error with fossil proof?<\/li>\n
      • How is the earth\u2019s geography associated with how species change?<\/li>\n
      • If species can be proven to change with time, what factors effect that change?<\/li>\n
      • What is the principle of convergence and divergence?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Topic Three: Mechanisms of Evolution<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • Why do species change or do they remain the same?<\/li>\n
        • How could the process of reproduction be associated with the mechanisms of evolution?<\/li>\n
        • Adaptation allows an organism to evolve so what causes an adaptation?<\/li>\n
        • Are adaptation inherited through use and disuse?<\/li>\n
        • Are adaptations controlled by some form of natural selection?<\/li>\n
        • How is speciation related to a mechanism of change?<\/li>\n
        • How is the rate of change associated with how an organism adapts?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Lamarck<\/h2>\n
            \n
          • From a scientific point of view, what are some of the weakness of Lamarck\u2019s argument<\/li>\n
          • What did Lamarck contribute to evolutionary ideas?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Darwin<\/strong><\/h1>\n
              \n
            • What are the five specific points of Darwin\u2019s mechanism of evolution?<\/li>\n
            • What is the importance of individual variation within a population?<\/li>\n
            • In order for an adaptation to be selected what must occur?<\/li>\n
            • What is the importance and or contribution of sexual reproduction in evolution?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Comparisons<\/h2>\n
                \n
              • How could today\u2019s ideas (i.e. genetic influence, symbiotic relationships etc.) be consistent or against Darwin and Lamarck\u2019s ideas?<\/li>\n
              • What biological discoveries have contributed to changing the interpretation of evolution?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
