What is biological evolution? - Answer-Heritable change in a population across many generations. What is the difference between microevolution and macroevolution? - Answer-Microevolution is on a small scale. It is a change in a single gene. Macroevolution is on a large scale and results in the formation of a new species. What is a scientific theory (definition)? - Answer-A well-tested concept that explains a wide range of observations. What is catastrophism? - Answer-The idea presented by ...

1. adaptation: inherited characteristics of organisms that enhance their survival and reproduction in specific environments 2. artificial selection: controlling survival and reproduction, dramatic change can occur in a short period of time 3. homology: similarity due to common ancestry 4. homologous structures: structures in different species that are similar be- cause of common ancestry 5. vestigial structures: components that serve no purpose, but are remanent from organisms ancestors 6. ...
