3
$100 Question from Evolution
The title of Darwin’s famous paper
4
$100 Answer from Evolution
“On the Origin of Species”
5
$200 Question from Evolution
Cuvier’s idea that sudden geologic catastrophes caused the extinction of large groups of organisms at certain points in the past
6
$200 Answer from Evolution
Catastrophism
7
$300 Question from Evolution
Differentiate acquired characteristics from inherited characteristics. Which is used in natural selection?
8
$300 Answer from Evolution
Acquired: individuals gain the trait during their lifetime and passed down to future offspring Inherited: The trait is genetic and passed down from parent to offspring
9
$400 Question from Evolution

10
$400 Answer from Evolution
The beaks of Finches, and how they are adapted to certain food sources
11

12
$500 Answer from evolution
Overproduction Genetic Variation Struggle to Survive Different Reproduction
13
$100 Question from Evidence of Evolution
What are two types of evidences that support evolution?
14
$100 Answer from Evolution
Fossil Record Biogeography Anatomy and Embryology DNA/ Amino Acid Sequence
15
$200 Question from Evidence of Evolution

16
$200 Answer from Evidence of Evolution
Pelvis/ femur in whales Tail bone in humans Appendix in humans
17
$300 Question from Evidence of Evolution
What can you conclude of the origin of humans using the table given?
18
$300 Answer from Evidence of Evolution
Humans share a recent common ancestor with gorillas
19
$400 Question from Evidence of Evolution
The image shown is an example of what kind of comparative structure?
20
$400 Answer from Evidence of Evolution
Homologous Structure
21
$500 Question from Evidence of Evolution
Explain why you Should finish your antibiotics
22
$500 Answer from Evidence of Evolution
To kill the bacteria That are resistant, The evolutionary resistance of bacteria to an antibiotic is an example of coevolution
23
$100 Question from Population Gen
Define gene pool
24
$100 Answer from population gen
The total genetic information available in a population
25
$200 Question from population gen
What are the two type of isolations that lead to speciation?
26
$200 Answer from population gen
Geographic Isolation Reproductive isolation
27
$300 Question from population gen
The following bell curve is an example of what kind of selection
28
$300 Answer from population gen
Directional Selection
29
$400 Question from Population gen
What are examples of a prezygotic isolation Postzygotic isolation?
30
$400 Answer from population gen
Prezygotic = before fertilization *Diff. mating locals and time Postzygotic = after fertilization *Embryo dies during development *Offspring are sterile
31
$500 Question from population gen
What are the 5 mechanisms of evolution in a population?
32
$500 Answer from population gen
Mutations Gene Flow Genetic Drift Nonrandom Mating Natural Selection
33
$100 Question from Hominid
What is the species name for humans?
34
$100 Answer from Hominid Homo sapiens
35
$200 Question from Hominid
What characteristic do both apes and hominids have in common?
36
$200 Answer from Hominid Opposable Thumbs
37
$300 Question from Hominid
What are three characteristics that differentiate hominids from other primates?
38
$300 Answer from Hominid Bipedal Extensive tool use Larger brain
39
$400 Question from Hominid
What is the relationship between jaw size and skull size
40
$400 Answer from Hominid Jaw becomes smaller due to easier ability to chew (due to cooking food), decrease in jaw muscle leaves room for brain size to grow
41
$500 Question from Hominid
What are two structures that allowed hominids to be bipedal?
42
Bowl-shaped pelvis Aligned toes S-shaped spine
$500 Answer from Hominid Bowl-shaped pelvis Aligned toes S-shaped spine
43
FINAL JEOPARDY Differentiate convergent and divergent evolution, given an example of each
44
Final Jeopardy Answer Convergent evolution: two species of different origin evolve similarly due to similar environment (evolution of shark and dolphin) Divergent evolution: one population of a species splits into a different species due to diff. environments (evolution of Galapagos finches)
