| Cell Theory<\/td>\n | What are the key points regarding this theory?<\/p>\n Why is a cell a fundamental unit of life?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Abiogenesis<\/td>\n | In this theory, where did new species come from?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Evolution<\/td>\n | <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | How is \u201cfixity of species\u201d related to theory of evolution?<\/p>\n Why does sexual reproduction contribute to diversity of species?<\/p>\n What is the most reliable method to dating the earth\u2019s age?<\/p>\n When is a population considered adapted to minor environmental fluctuations (changes).<\/p>\n How is an inherited variation related to the environment?<\/p>\n What are two examples of the rate of change in evolution?<\/p>\n What are four definitions of evolution and why?<\/p>\n (consider process, theory, change in gene pool and diversity in species)<\/p>\n How is structure and function related homologous, analogous and vestigial structures?<\/p>\n What are four forms of indirect evidence? Provide an example.<\/p>\n What are three reasons why fossils may create some confusion in regards to creating a phylogenic tree.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Lamarck<\/td>\n | Did the organism change to the environment or did the environment change the organism in Lamarck\u2019s theory and law?<\/p>\n What was his theory?<\/p>\n What was his law?<\/p>\n What are some examples of his theory and law?<\/p>\n What is an example of \u201can acquired characteristic\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Darwin<\/td>\n | <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What are Darwin\u2019s six specific points?<\/p>\n How did Darwin link \u201cnatural selection\u201d to \u201cartificial selection\u201d?<\/p>\n Why is struggle for existence linked to Malthus<\/p>\n Why is Wallace linked to \u201csurvival of fittest\u201d?<\/p>\n In both Lamarck\u2019s and Darwin\u2019s theories, is the source of genetic variability discussed? Why not?<\/p>\n Darwin\u2019s ideas was based upon overpopulation and survival of the fittest, why?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Evolution in action<\/td>\n | In the case study of English Peppered Moths, what is the source for change in colour of the moth?<\/p>\n In the case study on amino acids and insects, how is biochemical indirect evidence linked to \u201cdegree of relatedness\u201d?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | In the case study with mosquitos and DDT, some mosquitos developed resistance to DDT. How would Lamarck and Darwin explain this?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | If an animal \u201cdevelops\u201d a trait to catch prey, is this a proof of an acquired characteristic?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | Lamarck states some animals \u201cdevelop\u201d an acquired characteristic vs Darwin says \u201cnature selects\u201d. What is the difference in the role of environment on the organism for these two theories?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | In the case study of horses, what type of selection and rate of evolution is occurring?<\/p>\n In the \u201cBarbellus\u201d lab, how is geological evidence linked to phylogenetic trees?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Definitions<\/td>\n | <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | If an organism does not have \u201cgenetic potential\u201d to adapt then the species becomes what?<\/p>\n What does the term \u201cassurance\u201d mean?<\/p>\n What does \u201cfundamental\u201d mean?<\/p>\n What does \u201cfluctuate\u201d mean?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is directional selection? Example<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is stabilizing selection? Example<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is disruptive selection? Example<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is an example of evidence that is not indirect evidence?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is the difference between convergence and coevolution?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | What is \u201cspeciation\u201d and how is it linked to isolation mechanisms?<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | How is speciation linked to adaptive radiation?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | How is adaptive radiation linked to divergence of a species?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | In an interbreeding population of organisms, what is a fertile offspring called?<\/p>\n If two species interbreed and create nonfertile species, what are they called?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| <\/td>\n | If someone visited the Hawaiian Islands and noticed 10 species of butterflies while going from island to island, how could they explain the diversity of species by looking at Darwin\u2019s evidence in the Galapagos Islands? What would be the role of isolation mechanisms, adaptive radiation, overpopulation, fitness of species and types of selections such as disruptive, stabilizing and directional selection.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Acme Guide: Evolution exam Theories Cell Theory What are the key points regarding this theory?
