WRITE ABOUT A THEME: Organization You have seenmany examples of how form fits function at all levels of thebiological hierarchy. However, we can imagine forms thatwould function better than some forms actually found innature. For example, if the wings of a bird were not formedfrom its forelimbs, such a hypothetical bird could fly yet alsohold objects with its forelimbs. In a short essay (100–150words), use the concept of “evolution as tinkering” to explainwhy there are limits to the functionality of forms in nature.
EVOLUTION CONNECTION Darwin suggested looking at aspecies’ close relatives to learn what its ancestors may havebeen like. Explain how his suggestion anticipates recentmethods, such as phylogenetic bracketing and the use ofoutgroups in cladistic analysis.
State 5 facts and 3 inferences Darwin used to construct the theory of Natural Selection. I'm confused I've listed overproduction, variation, and adaptation as the three inferences, but I do not know what to put for facts because what I've listed might belong under the facts category. Thanks!
Compare Lamarckian vs. Darwinian Evolution through illustration. You mayuse different animals of your interest.
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion to all parts 1. What are the wings of birds and bees are an example of? 1. a homologous character 2. convergent evolution 3. derived characters 4. mosaic evolution 5. ancestral characters
15. Organ systems of groups of animals show a similar pattern that may differ to a certain extent among members belonging to the same phylum. Similarities of that are based on homologous organs provide information on evolutionary relationships. All of the following are homologous structures EXCEPT: * a. Humans’ arm b. Bat’s wing c. Dolphin’s flipper d. Fish tail 16. Mrs. Santos discussed the topic Natural Selection to his grade 10 students to understand the evolutionary changes in the environment and organisms. Which of the following is TRUE about Natural Selection? * a. Majority of the population will possess unfavorable traits and it becomes maladapted in the environment. b. Humans choose and breed selected animals with particular traits to reproduce. c. The most adapted individuals die and become extinct.…
Find two cases in the media (internet, TV, etc.) of a person (organization, etc.) attempting to describe and example of the process of Darwinian evolution but is incorrectly describing the evolution process using a Lamarckian approach to evolution. Give the following information for both cases: Source (Where you found it) In what ways are they mistakenly claiming that the evolutionary process is an example of Darwinian evolution? How do you know that they are really describing evolution through a Lamarckian process, not a Darwinian process?
Many species of mammals have complex eyes that are capable of sight. The function of sight is a result of the structure of the eye, the nervous system, and the brain. Removing one of these structures from an organism disrupts the function of sight. Therefore, sight would be best described as an example of a(n) .

Consider Theodosius Dobzhansky’s remark, “Nothing in biologymakes sense except in the light of evolution.” Why is evolution soimportant to the field of biology? Give some specific examples of howthe theory of evolution helps us to make sense of biology.
Do you think that H. naledi and H. neanderthalensis were deliberately burying their dead? Why or why not? Be sure to discuss both Archaic Humans and to mention specific examples from the assigned reading and video. However, be sure to write in your own words – do not cite from the text/video. Be as specific as possible and defend your answer. Claims that Homo naledi buried their dead could alter our understanding of human evolution:https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/news/2023/june/claims-homo-naledi-buried-their-dead-alterour-understanding-human-evolution.html.
