A. Ability to Use Thumb; B. Time Measured; C. Tasks done with Opposable Thumb
Using your Lab Activity (pages 7-10):
What would be an appropriate CONCLUSION for this activity?
When the class completed tasks with the use of their thumbs and without their thumbs, we can conclude that...
all students without their thumbs did not finish at all
all students with their thumbs took longer to complete the tasks
all students with their thumbs took less time to complete the tasks
all students without their thumbs would be faster in half of the tasks
Who was Charles Darwin? (pgs 2-4)
Englishman that traveled the globe and developed his theory of natural selection
Went to Hawaii and noticed the different bugs adaptations
Believed and proved the theory of Intelligent Design
God-fearing man who proved the earth was 6,000 years old.
Pages 2-4:
Genetic drift is change in the allele frequency of a population due to...
random chance
natural selection
non-random mating (sexual selection)
artificial selection
Pages 2-4
What is another name for natural selection?
survival of the smartest
survival of the fastest
survival of the biggest
survival of the fittest
Page 6: #5
The environment around Manchester, England, changed during the Industrial Revolution. How did this change affect peppered moths living in the area?
Natural selection favored moths with dark wings because predators could not see them on the soot-colored trees.
Natural selection favored moths with white wings that were easy for predators to see.
Natural selection favored moths with white wings because predators could not see them on the soot-colored trees.
Natural selection caused moths with white wings to become extinct.
Pages 2-4:

Pages 2-4:
Genetic drift is more likely to happen in...
large populations
small populations
terrestrial populations
older populations
Pages 2-4:
When individuals choose traits possessed by the opposite sex it is called… (Ex. Peacocks with their feathers on display)
Mutation
Gene Flow
Genetic Drift
Sexual Selection
Pages 2-4:
This mechanism of evolution occurs when populations migrate.
Extinction
Gene flow
Genetic drift
Natural Selection
Pages 13-14:
The death of every member of a species is
The flu
an epidemic
extinction
a population
Pages 13-14:
______ _________ explains how two or more organisms could evolve similar traits even though they are not related to each other.
convergent evolution
reproductive isolation
derived characters
hybrid vigor
Pages 13-14:
Other insects can not, but, a bumble bee has just enough weight to open up the snapdragon flower and pollinate. This adaption is ....
convergent evolution
co-evolution
divergent evolution
speciation
Pages 13-14:
Species that are closely related (share a common ancestor) become increasingly different through
divergent evolution
competitive relationships
convergent evolution
disruptive selection
Pages 13-14:
Some organisms that share a common ancestor have features that have different functions, but similar structures. This process is known as
co-evolution
convergent evolution
adaptive radiation/divergent evolution
contrasting evolution
Pages 13-14:
Sharks and dolphins both have streamlined bodies that allow them to move through water efficiently, this is an example of which type of evolution?
Divergent
Coevolution
Convergent
Artificial
Pages 13-14:
The idea that evolution seems to occur in spurts of time.
stabilizing selection
directional selection
disruptive selection
punctuated equilibrium
Pages 13-14:
The hypothesis that evolution of a species occurs gradually over time as a slow and constant process is known as
speciation
punctuated equilibrium
gradualism
microevolution
Page 15:
Question 1:
Butterflies, bats and birds all have wings that allow them to fly. Butterfly wings, however, do not have bones like bat and bird wings.
This is an example of:
convergent evolution
divergent evolution
extinction
gradualism

Question #4:
The Dodo was a flightless bird, first spotted in 1598. The Dodo had no known predators until sailors hunted them and invasive species from the ships were introduced (cats, rats, etc). The last sighting of the dodo was in 1662.
This is Extinction
This is Punctuated Equilibrium
This is Gradualism
This is Adaptive Radiation
Page 15:
#7 Fossil Evidence suggests that whales evolved from land mammals. (Woah! Who knew?!) This was a SLOW process over THOUSANDS of years that resulted from continual reduction of the ancestral mammal's forelimbs (hands, arms, etc) until they were reduced to fins.
This is Gradualism
This is Extinction
This is Punctuated Equilibrium
This is Convergent Evolution
