sociolinguistics correct answers the study of language in relation to social factors, including
differences of regional, class, and occupational dialect, gender differences, and bilingualism.
archaeology correct answers study of past cultures using artifacts and other material culture
physical anthropology correct answers study of human biology
social anthropology correct answers all aspects of human adaption
ethnography correct answers set of learned behaviors/cultures
applied anthropology correct answers cultural resource management, forensic anthropology,
applied ethnology
culture correct answers set of learned behaviors
holistic correct answers unity of human biology and culture, cultural intergration
cultural relativism correct answers respective to other cultures, being objective, keeping an
open mind.
ethnocentrism correct answers regarding other cultures as inferior, culture prejudice
Great Chain of Being correct answers universe full- everything possible exists, continuous
series of life forms, hierarchical sequence, change impossible
Bishop James Ussher correct answers interpreted genesis, earth created at 4004 BC
Carolus Linnaeus correct answers field of taxonomy, developed classification system for and
animals (systema naturae), included humans with animals (humans grouped with apes),
binomial nomenclature
Binomial nomenclature correct answers one species is given two names, one Latin, one
English
, Theory of Catastrophism correct answers the Earth has been affected in the past by sudden,
short-lived, violent events, possibly worldwide in scope. This was in contrast to
uniformitarianism (sometimes described as gradualism), in which slow incremental changes,
such as erosion, created all the Earth's geological features.
Theory of Transformism correct answers inheritance of acquired traits (muscles), organs
develop to satisfy needs, interaction of organic forms with their environment, spontaneous
generation
Jean Baptiste Lamarck correct answers believed if you used some organ or body part it would
adapt. (if garraf stretched its neck, the neck would become longer)
Uniformitarianism correct answers the scientific principle that the same natural laws and
processes that operate in the universe now have always operated in the universe in the past
and apply everywhere in the universe.
Georges Cuvier correct answers father of zoology, paleontology, and comparative anatomy.
theory of catastrophism, separated animal kingdom into four divisions.
Thomas Malthus correct answers human population doubles every 25 years, food production
increase only in a arithmetic progression, species overpopulation checked by the struggle for
existence
Charles Darwin correct answers medical student at edinburgh, father stated that charles was
only interested in "shooting dogs, and rat catching", captain's companion on HMS Beagle,
Galapagos Islands, wrote sketches of his ideas in 1842 and 44
The Origin of the Species correct answers mutability of species, species evolve from other
species via natural selection, descent with modification.
Natural selection correct answers descent with modification, variation, selection, time.
Evolution correct answers a trait must be inherited, natural selection cannot occur without
variation in a population, fitness is relative to the environment, evolution is not directed,
selection is a non-random froce
Selective advantage correct answers The characteristic of an organism that enables it to
survive and reproduce better than other organisms in a population in a given environment; the
basis for evolution by natural selection.
Gregor Mendel correct answers Did the pea plants experiment.
Dominant correct answers dominant gene
Recessive correct answers non-dominant gene
