Biology Week 14

pattern of evolution in which distinctly related organisms evolve similar traits

• divergent evolution

• convergent evolution

• co evolution

• artificial selection

pattern of evolution in which species that once were similar to an ancestral species diverge or become increasingly distinct

• convergent evolution

• divergent evolution

• co evolution

• artificial selection

when 2 or more species affect each other's evolution

• co-evolution

• divergent evolution

• convergent evolution

• taxonomy

evolutionary history of a species based on comparative relationships of structures and comparisons of modern life forms with fossils.

• guesswork

• thinking map

• taxonomy

• phylogeny

phylogenetic trees (choose all that apply)

• model of the phylogeny of a species

• used to show how organisms diverge and evolve from common ancestral groups

• 2 groups on diverging branches share a more recent ancestor than groups farther away

• are real trees

branch of biology that groups and names organisms based on studies of their different characteristics

• taxonomy

• classification

• adaptation

• speciation

uses a set of paired statements that can be used to identify organisms

• vocabulary

• taxonomy

• Dichotomous Key

• adaptation

Domains are broken into categories. Choose the one that is correct

• Kingdom,phylum, class, order, family, genus, species

• class, order, kingdom, phylum, family, genus, species

Classification (choose all that apply)

• Developed by Carolus Linnaeus

• based on physical and structural similarities

• uses binomial nomenclature (2 part naming system..ex. humans are homo sapiens)

• is written in English

2 word naming system in which the genus is written first, followed by the scientific epithet

• taxonomy

• adaptation

• binomial nomenclature

• artificial selection
