Evolution Jeopardy Evolution by Natural Selection MicroevolutionMacroevolutionTaxonomyHardy- Weinberg

This summarizes Darwin’s theory of natural selection What is traits that aid in survival and reproduction become common because only individuals with these traits can survive and reproduce

One part of Darwin’s work On the Origin of Species was that species change over time and become new species. He called the idea this. What is descent with modification?

Darwin argued for the plausibility of evolution by natural selection by citing dog breeding, an example of this What is artificial selection

These are 3 ways Lamarck’s mechanism of evolution differed from Darwin’s. 1.Lamarck- characteristics are acquired during lifetime 2.Lamarck- features that are used grow bigger, those that don’t disappear 3.Lamarck- species changed due to inner need 4.Darwin- only some individuals survive 5.Darwin- differences inherited at birth (fit very well with genetics)

Explain 5 sources of evidence for evolution 1.Fossil record shows expected order of species and transitional species 2.DNA analysis shows similar genes in related species 3.Protein analysis shows similar proteins in related species 4.Biogeography- species related to those near them 5.Comparing embryology- related animals develop similarly, even when they look very different as adults 6.Comparing anatomies – homologous structures 7.Vestigial structures- show ancestry

This best defines microevolution What is changes in the gene pool of a population?

This defines genetic drift What is the random changes in the gene pool of a small population

This best explains why males appear drastically different than females in many species What is females select traits in males? Only males with the traits can reproduce so traits become more common in males (sexual selection)

The graph above represents this pattern of microevolution What is stabilizing selection?

These are the 5 causes of microevolution 1.Natural selection 2.Sexual selection 3.Mutations 4.Gene flow (migration) 5.Genetic drift (random chance)

This best defines macroevolution What are the formation of new species or other taxonomic groups? (big changes)

This must occur for populations to be considered different species What is an inability for them to successfully reproduce with each other? (note that they may still mate- just can’t produce fertile offspring!)

This type of evolution leads to analogous characters (define analogous characters in your answer) Convergent evolution. Leads to similar looking traits in distantly related species, that were not present in a shared ancestor (i.e. bird and bat wing)

A predator species evolves better eyesight as individuals with better eyesight are able to better hunt prey. This causes the prey population to become faster as only the fastest runners are quick enough to avoid the predator. The story above is an example of this What is co-evolution (evolution of one species affects another)

These are 5 ways different species can be prevented from mating with each other What are: 1.Timing of reproduction 2.Location of reproduction 3.Reproduction behavior (mating dances, songs etc.) 4.Reproductive anatomies 5.Sperm/egg compatibility 6.Fertility of offspring (i.e. mules)

This domain includes prokaryotes with no peptidoglycan and some genetics similar to eukaryotes. Many of them are extremophiles living in extremely hot, salty or acidic conditions What is Domain Archaea?

The animal kingdom has these defining features No cell wall Multicellular Nervous and muscle tissue

All members of a phylum must all belong to the same of these What are Kingdom and Domain.

This represents the frequency of the dominant phenotype in the H-W formulas What is p^2 + 2pq

40% of the alleles in a population are dominant, what % of the population expresses the recessive phenotype? What is 36%? P=0.4, q=0.6, q^2=0.36

If 49% of a population expresses the recessive phenotype, this % of the population must be homozygous dominant What is 9%? q^2=0.49, q=0.7, p=0.3, p^2=0.09

If 38 individuals in a population of 200 express the dominant trait, how many individuals would be expected to be heterozygous? What is 36? P^2+2pq=38/200 = 0.19 q^2=1-0.19=0.81, q=0.9, p=0.1 2*p*q=2*0.9*0.1= *200=36 To double check – p^2=0.01, * 200 = 2 individuals are homozygous dominant

These are the 5 requirements for a population to be in H-W equilibrium 1.Large (no genetic drift) 2.Isolated (no gene flow) 3.Equal survival (No natural selection) 4.Random mating (No sexual selection) 5.No mutations
