Charles Darwin proposed that evolution could be explained by the differential reproductive success of organisms that resulted from their naturally occurring variation. Darwin called this process (a) coevolution (b) convergent evolution (c) natural selection (d) artificial selection (e) homoplasy
What is the difference between artificial selection and natural selection? How did Darwin's studies and experiments with artificial selection help him articulate how natural selection works? Provide an example and a personal reflection on something new you learned or found particularly interesting on this topic.
Which scientist independently came up with the same basic idea as Darwin at more or less the same time? Group of answer choices A. Cuvier - homology B. Lyell - Uniformitarianism C. Lamarck - inheritance of acquired characteristics D. Wallace - Natural Selection
Which of the following is NOT an essential component of Darwin's theory of natural selection? a) natural selection results in a population that is adapted to its environment b) use or disuse of a structure causes changes that are passed onto the next generation c) more offspring are produced than the environment can support d)heritable variation exists in populations
With which statement would Darwin most likely have agreed? * Competition among individual species causes heritable variations Variations are caused by Natural selection Organisms best adapted to a particular environment are the most likely to reproduce. No answer Survival of any species is proportional to the inheritance acquired characteristics.
Research the definition the term; “agents of selection”, in relation to Darwin’s concept about Natural Selection. Afterwards, explain and discuss what is/are asked in the question below: In what sense are humans currently acting as "agents of selection" on other species? Name some organisms that are favored by the environmental changes humans cause.
Explain the similarities between Darwin's and Lamarck's theory of evolution and of course the differences between both theories
While hiking in the andes mountain in south america, darwin found a glyptodon fossil that resembled the modern armadillo. This evidence was used by Darwin to support his theory of natural selection by showing how species have..
Darwin's theory of natural selection forms the basis of our understanding of evolution, but it was incomplete. He did not know the mechanism that produces variation. Group of answer choices True False
Which of the following observations helped Darwin shape hisconcept of descent with modification?(A) Species diversity declines farther from the equator.(B) Fewer species live on islands than on the nearestcontinents.(C) Birds live on islands located farther from the mainlandthan the birds’ maximum nonstop flight distance.(D) South American temperate plants are more similar to thetropical plants of South America than to the temperateplants of Europe.
Which concepts characterized Lamarck's hypothesis about evolution? Select all that apply. Over many generations, individuals that have more adaptive traits tend to survive longer and reproduce more than less fit rivals. Environmental pressures caused an internal requirement for change in an individual, and the individual would change to meet this pressure Species gradually improved over generations due to an inherent drive toward perfection. Changes acquired to meet environmental pressures during an individual's lifetime would be inherited by offspring.
Darwin's basis of evolution was founded upon several explanations. Identify five of these supporting ideas, explain what they are and also give an example of each.
