Evolution and Taxonomy
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| convergent evoution | is an evolution which the organisms develop structures that have the same function but they don't have a common ancestor |
| gene flow | breed with members of a nearby population |
| genetic drift | changes between allele frequencies in different generations (small pop) |
| gradual change model | evolution occurs slowly and gradually |
| mutation | change in a DNA molecule that is passed through the next generations |
| natural selection | increases in the fitness of a population more successful genotypes succeed requires variation, inheritance, differential adeptness and reproduction |
| non-random mating | mating with a related individual - artificial selection |
| divergent evolution | the evolution of two different species that come from a common ancestor |
| punctuated equilibrium model | rapid and brief periods of change and long stable periods |
| speciation | new species are created and then they cannot interbreed with the original species anymore |
| biochemical relationship | |
| embryological relationship | |
| eukaryotic/prokaryotic cell | does and does not have membrane bound or nucleus |
| evolutionary relationship | |
| sub phylum | a taxonomic category between a phylum and a class with individuals related |
| taxonomy | is the arrangement of organisms into orderly groups based on their similarities |
