5/6 quizizz review

Which of the following is a fossil?

• a plant that has recently died
• a group of organisms that can reproduce
• a structure or organ that no longer functions
• a trace of an organisms that existed in the past

what did Charles Darwin observe in finch populations of the Galapagos Islands off the coast of South America?

• different species on different islands
• all species on one of the islands
• identical species on all the islands
• the same species as North America

Genetic variation can arise from a random change in the DNA of a gene.  The change is called a(n)

• mutation
• gene flow
• gene pool
• allele

The variety of living things on Earth is called:

• Life
• Biodiversity
• Similarity
• Genetics

This image shows that 

• These animals have no simliarities in their structures. 
• two different species may have evolved from a common ancestor. 
• These animals are from the same species. 
• These animals likely evolved from different ancestors due to their differences. 

Which type of adaptation is shown?

• mimicry
• camouflage
• artificial selection
• homologous structure

Two organisms that are closely related would have

• very similar DNA sequence
• exactly the same DNA sequences
• no proteins in common
• completely different DNA sequence

what gave Charles Darwin the idea of evolution?

• google
• wikipedia
• mans attempt to destroy mankind
• finches in the Galapagos island

Which statement best describes the process of evolution?

• Populations can survive in different locations on earth
• Environmental conditions limit the number of species on Earth
• Populations grow when resources are abundant
• The traits of a species can change over time

Over time, adaptions can lead populations to experience 

• environmental changes
• genetic changes
• geological changes
• extinction
