Evolution

Evolution is:

• How organisms gain different genes

• Is when species adapt and change in response to their environment

• How organism look different from others

Worldwide difference is:

• Species change over time, making them look different from other members of their species

• Species look different based on their geographic places

• Species from one part of the world, look different from another species in another part of the world, but have some similarities

Local differences are:

• ·       Species from one part of the world, look different from another species in another part of the world, but have some similarities

• Species look different based on their geographic places

• Species change over time, making them look different from other members of the species

Time differences are:

• Species change over time, making them look different from other members of the species

• Species from one part of the world, look different from another species in another part of the world, but have some similarities

• Species look different based on their geographic places

Convergent Evolution is:

• When two organisms have the same genes

• When animals or plants look similar to other animals and plants because they live in a similar environment

• When animals or plants look different to other animals and plants because they live in a similar environment

• When two organisms have different genes

What is Natural Selection:

• Explains how species evolve

• When animals change how they look so a predator does not get them

• When parents pass down their genes to their offspring

• When animals cannot adapt to their environment, so they no not survive or reproduce

Uniformitarianism:

• The same geological process that occurs today, have occurred in past

• How the earth shifts

• The geological process in which the earth moves

• How earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanoes change the shape of the earth

The theory of natural selection is:

• Variation in genes

• Not everyone will survive, not everyone will reproduce

• Variation helps survival and reproduction

• Adaption helps survival

Artificial Selection:

• When traits are chosen and passed down to the offspring

• How scientists make clones

• Traits that combine to create an offspring with those traits

What is Biogeography:

• How the environment that surrounds a population can impact their genetic variation

• How organisms adapt to their environment

• How to environment adapts to the organisms needs
