GENERAL REVIEW PACKET #11: Descent with Modification & Microevolution
Fall 2023
A physical answer key for this packet is available at group review sessions and office hours. The key is
also available in the Learning Center Resources of the Learning Center module on Canvas.
Make sure you are looking at the learning objectives for each lecture/set of lectures.
1. Before Lamarck, Darwin, and Wallace, what were the main hypotheses people (i.e., Plato and
Aristotle) had to explain the diversity of life on Earth?
2. Describe catastrophism and uniformitarianism. How do these two concepts relate to evolution?
3. What common hypotheses did Lamarck, Darwin, and Wallace share?
What differed about their
ideas?
5. Compare/contrast homologous structures with vestigial structures. What are some examples of each?
6. What are analogous structures? How do they differ from homologous structures? Give an example of
analogous structures.
7.
How do the following support Darwin’s theory of evolution through natural
selection?
a. artificial selection:
b. homology:

c. biogeography:
d. fossil record:
e. drug/chemical resistance:
8. The chief predator of an English species of snail is the song thrush.
Snails that inhabit woodland
floors have dark shells, whereas those that live on grass have yellow shells, which are less clearly
visible against the lighter background. Using the Darwinian principles that were introduced in
lecture, briefly explain this phenomenon.
9.
There are some important points to keep in mind regarding natural selection.
Explain why the
following are misconceptions about natural selection:
a. All traits have evolved as a result of natural selection
b. Life basically changed by chance
c. Natural selection involves organisms “trying” to adapt
d. Natural selection gives organisms what they need

10. Is natural selection the same thing as evolution?
Explain your answer.
11. What are the two sources of genetic variation? How do they create genetic variation?
12. Genetic drift is one mechanism of microevolution. Define genetic drift. Does it increase or decrease
genetic variation in a population? List and describe the two types of genetic drift.
13. Under which of the following conditions would genetic drift have a SMALL impact?
EXPLAIN.
a. when populations are large and natural selection is strong
b. when populations are small and natural selection is weak
c. when a small group migrates to a new location
d. when a large population suffers a population crash
e. when an unexpected storm kills off most of a flock of birds
14. Imagine a population of small mammals living on a small, mountainous oceanic island. Individuals
live all the way around the island. When a hurricane hits the island, all of the individuals living on the
south side are lost, while many of the individuals living on the north side
—
where they were more
protected from the hurricane by the mountain
—
survived. What is this an example of? How will this
affect allele frequency in the surviving population?

2. Biodiversity - including the diversity of microbes, fungi, plants, and animals.
3. Ecology - including organismal ecology, population ecology, community ecology, ecosystem ecology, and conservation ecology.
For each of the subject areas, describe at least two ways that concepts involved with that subject area relate to aspects of everyday life, the medical field, or hobbies.

Module 1: Ecomorphs
1. At the beginning of the virtual lab, you were asked to sort eight lizards into categories. What
criteria did you initially use to make your groups? Did you revise your criteria later? Why?
2. An adaptation is a structure or function that is common in a population because it enhances the
ability to survive and reproduce in a particular environment. Provide one example and an
explanation of one adaptation in the Anolis lizards.
4. What is an ecomorph? Provide one example from the virtual lab.
3. Provide one evolutionary explanation for why lizards living in the same part of the habitat (i.e.,
grass) would have similar characteristics.
5. How is an ecomorph different from a species?

EVOLUTION
At the end of this lesson, you will be able to describe general features of the
history of life on Earth, including generally accepted dates and sequence of the
geologic time scale and characteristics of major groups of organisms present
during these time periods; and explain the mechanisms that produce change in
populations from generation to generation (e.g., artificial selection, natural
selection, genetic drift, mutation, recombination)
TOPIC:
Learning Competencies:
Earth formed 4.6 billion years ago. Life first appeared on Earth about 4 billion years ago. The first life
forms were microscopic, single-celled organisms. From these simple beginnings, evolution gradually produced
the vast diversity of life today.
In this lesson, you'll learn about the history of life from its origins until now. You'll learn that living things
had to cope with some astounding changes. Giant meteorites struck Earth's surface. Continents drifted and…

Developing the Theory of Evolution
WARM-UP
What was Charles Darwin's contribution to the theory of evolution?
O Charles Darwin was the first to express the belief that all living things are related.
Charles Darwin believed that organisms had a goal to adapt and did so through the inheritance of
acquired traits.
Charles Darwin introduced the idea that organisms better adapted to their environment would tend to
survive, reproduce, and increase in number.
Charles Darwin developed the theory of population growth.
