Hypothesis vs Theory - hypothesis is and educated guess while a theory is concept that is well
supported by observation, experiments, and data.
Hardy-Weinberg - No migration, choice of mates random, mutation does not occur, no selection
pressure
Adaptive radiation - a population colonizes a new habitat and go through natural selection, adapt
and become new species (finches).
allopatric - isolated population become new species. (porkfish landbridge)
Alveolata - Ciliates and dinoflagellates/Sac-like vesicles near cell membrane
Amoebozoa - amoebas and slime molds/pseudopods
Analogous structures - Species with same structures but with different ancestors (anteater and
echinda).
Archaeplastida - Red, Green algae and plants/Primary plastid and chlorophyll A
Charles Darwin - Adaptive radiation
Chordate development evidence - All embryos have post anal tail, gill slits, dorsal hollow nerve
cord, and notochord
cladograms - branching trees showing evolutionary relatedness
DNA sequences - Similar DNA sequences found in different species p53
, Eramus Darwin - artificial selection
Excavata - Euglena/feeding grove
George Curvier - catastrophism - floods, volcanos, lead to mass extinction, new species.
Give 3 genetic processes that cause variation in a population (other than mutation) - migration,
genetic drift, and natural selection
Homologous - genes derived from a common ancestor
How are tax All viruses are composed of ________ and _________. - Protein coat and nucleic acid
onomy and evolution related? - both have a common ancestor
How are the kingdoms similar? - Cell theory
How does extinction support the theory of evolution? - after extinction, new species appeared
How is a viroid different from a prion? - A viriod is composed of RNA and a prion is composed of
proteins
How would you determine if you found a new species? - It produces fertile offspring and cannot
interbreed with other species
James Hutton and Charles Lydell - Uniformitarionism (slow genetic changes)
Jean-Baptist de Lamarck - Evolution driven for perfection, use and disuse, acquired characteristics
