1 Scientist s Darwin’s Voyage Darwin’s Theory Not Like the Other Evidenc e for Evolutio n $10 $20 $30 $40 $50 Evolution Jeopardy

2 Answer This scientist came up with the theory of evolution by means of natural selection.

3 Question Who was Charles Darwin?

4 Answer This scientist thought that aquired characteristics could be passed from parents to offspring, like the length of a giraffe’s neck

5 Question Who was Lamarck?

6 Answer This mathematician noticed that the human population could not increase indefinetly, i.e. population was kept in check by disease and limits on resources.

7 Question Who was Malthus?

8 Answer This naturalist wrote an essay similar to Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution, the essay prompted Darwin to publish a joint paper with him and finish his book.

9 Question Who was Alfred Wallace?

10 Answer This idea of farmers and breeders prompted Darwin to come up with the idea of natural selection, this is how farmers and breeders came up with crop and livestock varieties.

11 Question What is selective breeding? (artificial selection is ok)

12 Answer This is the most famous group of islands that Darwin visited.

13 Question What are the Galapagos Islands?

14 Double JEOPARDY How much do you wish to wager?

15 Double JEAPORDY Answer The name of the ship that Darwin was on for his voyage.

16 Double JEAPORDY Question What is the HMS Beagle?

17 Answer How long the voyage lasted.

18 Question What is about five years?

19 Answer Darwin hypothesized that the finches did this after the ancestral population was blown over from the mainland and over time groups populated the different islands and developed different traits.

20 Question What is adaptive radiation?

21 Answer These famous winged inhabitants of the Galapagos Islands gave Darwin much evidence to develop his theory.

22 Question What are finches?

23 Answer This was Darwin’s job aboard the ship.

24 Question What is naturalist?

25 Answer Organisms differ.

26 Question What is variation?

27 Answer Organims produce many more organisms than can do this.

28 Question What is survive?

29 Answer Organisms do this for limited resources.

30 Question What is compete?

31 Answer This is the more common term for the struggle for existance, individuals best sutied to their environment survive and reproduce most successfully.

32 Question What is survival of the fittest?

33 Answer The environmental conditions “select” which organisms will survive and which do not have proper survival adaptations.

34 Question What is Natural Selection?

35 Answer Finches Tortoises Armadillos Marine Iguanas

36 Question What are Armadillos (not on the Galapagos)

37 Answer Fossil Record Geographic Distribution Homologous Structures Cell Theory

38 Question What is Cell Theory? (not evidence supporting evolution)

39 Answer Plants Archae Animals Fungi

40 Question What is Archae

41 Answer Theory Verified Hypothesis Guess Facts

42 Question What is guess?

43 Answer Behavioral Isolation Geographic Isolation Temporal Isolation Summative Isolation

44 Question What is summative isolation (not an isolation mechanism)

45 Answer Younger fossils resemble modern species, fossils show transitions from older species to modern species, different fossils are found in different layers

46 Question What is Fossil evidence?

47 Answer Genes (DNA) are compared to see how close they match, fewer gene differences = more closely related organisms

48 Question What are Molecular comparisons?

49 Answer Closely related organisms develop similarly after fertilization; humans, chickens, lizards, and fish all have pharangeal pouches and tails at early stages of development

50 Question What is comparative embryology?

51 Answer Related organisms have similar internal structures from ancestral species like the limb bones in humans, cats, whales, and bats.

52 Question What is comparative anatomy?

53 Answer These are structures that have no apparent use in modern organisms, they are commonly called evolutionary leftovers, they are remnants of structures from ancestral species.

54 Question What are vestigial structures?
