Animals that are the least specialized may stand the best chance of surviving if the environment changes because the can
mutate on command
move like the wind
adapt to new conditions
overproduce offspring
Some whales have hip bones that suggest they
evolved from ancestors with limbs
had parents with limbs
will have children with limbs
had functional limbs when they were young
Different species of birds perform different mating rituals and sing different songs. These are examples of
adaptive radiation
behavioral isolation
artificial selection
geographic isolation

Evolution is
change over time
inheritance of acquired characteristics
magic
organisms finding their niche
Evolution depends on
the intelligence of organisms
the variations in a population
the size of individuals
the social behaviors of organisms
Over time, one species may evolve into several unique species. This is known as
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
birdification

The light variant would be more successful
The dark variant would be more successful
Nothing at all
