When HUMANS select or choose a plant or animal for breeding based on a desired trait

Parts of the body that are similar to other species because they have a common ancestor

Shows how different groups of organisms have changed over time.

Body part you have that use to have a purpose but now has little or no function

Scientist that contributed the most to our understanding of evolution

Organisms with the best suited adaptations for their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce than organisms that are not very well adapted

The more offspring an organism has the greater the odds that a few of them will survive, reproduce and pass on those traits

a trait that gives an organism an advantage in their particular environment

a trait that gives an organism an advantage in their particular environment

Species not closely related evolve similar traits due to their similar environment

Species from the same ancestor accumulate differences over time

This occur because of the several mutagens like ultraviolet radiation and hazardous chemicals in the environment that can affect genes and chromosomes.
