Evolution Jeopardy

Answer

This scientist came up with the theory of

evolution by means of natural selection.

Question

Who was Charles Darwin?

Answer

This scientist thought that aquired

characteristics could be passed from parents

to offspring, like the length of a giraffe’s

neck

Question

Who was Lamarck?

Answer

This mathematician noticed that the human

population could not increase indefinetly, i.e. population was kept in check by

disease and limits on resources.

Question

Who was Malthus?

Answer

This naturalist wrote an essay similar to Charles Darwin’s

theory of evolution, the essay prompted

Darwin to publish a joint paper with him and finish his book.

Question

Who was Alfred Wallace?

Answer

This idea of farmers and breeders prompted

Darwin to come up with the idea of natural

selection, this is how farmers and breeders

came up with crop and livestock varieties.

Question

What is selective breeding?

(artificial selection is ok)

Answer

This is the most famous group of islands that

Darwin visited.

Question

What are the Galapagos Islands?

Double JEOPARDY

• How much do you wish to wager?

Double JEAPORDY Answer

The name of the ship that Darwin was on for

his voyage.

Double JEAPORDY Question

What is the HMS Beagle?

Answer

How long the voyage lasted.

Question

What isabout five years?

Answer

Darwin hypothesized that the finches did

this after the ancestral population was blown

over from the mainland and over time groups

populated the different islands and developed

different traits.

Question

What isadaptive radiation?

Answer

These famous winged inhabitants of the

Galapagos Islands gave Darwin much evidence to develop his theory.

Question

What are finches?

Answer

This was Darwin’s job aboard the ship.

Question

What is naturalist?

Answer

Organisms differ.

Question

What is variation?

Answer

Organims produce many more organisms than

can do this.

Question

What is survive?

Answer

Organisms do this for limited resources.

Question

What iscompete?

Answer

This is the more common term for the struggle for existance, individuals best sutied to their environment

survive and reproduce most successfully.

Question

What is survival of the fittest?

Answer

The environmental conditions “select”

which organisms will survive and which do

not have proper survival adaptations.

Behavioral IsolationGeographic IsolationTemporal Isolation

Summative Isolation

Question

What is summative isolation

(not an isolation mechanism)

Answer

Younger fossils resemble modern species, fossils show transitions from

older species to modern species, different fossils

are found in different layers

Question

What isFossil evidence?

Answer

Genes (DNA) are compared to see how

close they match, fewer gene differences = more closely related organisms

Question

What are Molecular comparisons?

Answer

Closely related organisms develop similarly after fertilization; humans,

chickens, lizards, and fish all have pharangeal pouches and tails at

early stages of development

Question

What is comparative embryology?

Answer

Related organisms have similar internal structures

from ancestral species like the limb bones in humans, cats, whales,

and bats.

Question

What is comparative anatomy?

Answer

These are structures that have no apparent use in modern organisms, they

are commonly called evolutionary leftovers, they are remnants of

structures from ancestral species.

Question

What are vestigial structures?
