CRST 290 FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Because of its brevity, this rapid buildup and surging of ice is more appropriately called
an Ice ________________ rather than an Ice Age. - Answer -Advance
Altruistic Genetic Elements (AGEs) - Answer -These are pieces of DNA (genetic
elements) that are designed to multiply and move around, both within and between
organisms.
Intrabaraminic Diversification - Answer -Rapid increase in diversity occurred entirely
within baramins
Vestigial structure - Answer -A structure of an organism that has a reduced
function from the same structure in similar organisms or fossils
Genetic throwbacks - Answer -Past structures that appear spontaneously in a small
percentage of offspring in the present
Biogeography - Answer -The science of where organisms live and how they came to
live there
Ring species - Answer -A set of populations arranged geographically in a
closed loop where all but one pair of populations can interbreed with adjacent species
Speciation - Answer -The origin of species by natural process
Arphaxadian Epoch - Answer -The period of time during which Arphaxad lived—and
during which the generations following Babel lived
Aside from things that occurred during the Flood, the
________________________________ saw some of the most interesting geological
and climatological events in earth history. - Answer -Arphaxadian Epoch
It was also during this period that most of the great races, religions, and cultures of
mankind arose. - Answer -Arphaxadian Epoch
Ultimately, fossils dubbed ______________________________________________ are
almost certainly humans who lived in the first couple of centuries after the Babel
dispersion. - Answer -Homo erectus and Homo sapiens
"The earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of
God." - Answer -Romans 8:19

, The post-Flood period is characterized by worldwide ______________________. -
Answer -Recolonization
"Bara" - Answer -Create
"Min" - Answer -Kind
Baraminology (term introduced by) - Answer -Dr. Frank L. Marsh 1941
Baraminology - Answer -Recognizes continuity and separation between groups
Appears for many organisms that the _________ is around the biological level of
_____________. - Answer -Kind; Family
Animals taken on board the ark tended to be __________ but got _____________. -
Answer -Small; Larger
Cope's Rule - Answer -American paleontologist in the 1800s; Noticed size growth in
Cenozoic and recognized independent of environment
Bergmann's Rule - Answer -German biologist in the 1800s; Larger in colder
environments thus Ice Age = bigger.
Advantages to being big: - Answer -1. Lower food requirements
2. Slower metabolism
3. Easier thermoregulation
4. Better protected from predators
Ice Age - Answer -Late post-Flood event where continental glacier covered large parts
of the world
Ice Age covered large portions of: - Answer -1. North America
2. Greenland
3. Northern Europe and Asia
4. Antarctica
How did the Ice Age happen? - Answer -1. Warm ocean waters: precipitation
2. Volcanic eruptions cooled atmosphere
3. Mass snowfall buildup --> glaciers
Glaciers always flow ______________. - Answer -Downhill
Terminus - Answer -Leading edge
