|---|---|
| Separation, Adaptation, and Division make up the steps of? | Speciation |
| What would it be called if farmers produced a vegetable that specifically could grow in a certain climate? | Selective breeding |
| Who was the naturalist that proposed that evolution happens through natural selection | Darwin |
| What is a timeline of life provided by the remains or imprints of dead organisms? | Fossil record |
| What is a likely reason that two organisms share similar DNA and similar traits? | common ancestor |
| What is a process consisting of overproduction, inherited variation, the struggle to survive, and successful reproduction? | Natural selection |
| What are groups of individuals of the same species living in the same place? | Population |
| Who wrote a famous book entitled "An Essay on the Principle of Population" and proposed that an increase in population is limited by the food supply. | Thomas Malthus |
| Who wrote the "Principles of Geology" that helped Darwin understand that evolution occurred over a long period of time. | Charles Lyell |
| What modern study of a person's heredity helps explain Darwin's theory? | Genetics |
| What is a group of organisms that can mate with one another to produce fertile offspring? | Species |
| What involves these processes: separation, adaptation, and division? | Speciation |
| What modern ocean-dwelling mammals are descended from ancient land-dwelling mammals? | Whales |
| What is part of natural selection in which an animal produces a large number of offspring? | overproduction |
| What is a process in which humans select which plants or animals to produce based on certain desired traits? | selective breeding |
| What is part of natural selection in which some individuals die from starvation, competition, disease, or predation? | Struggle to survive |
| What is part of natural selection in which individuals that are best adapted to their environments have many offsrping? | successful reproduction |
| What are specific characteristics that can be passed from parent to offsrping through genes? | Traits |
| What is a part of natural selection in which individuals have different traits? | Inherited variation |
| What is a process in which individuals that are better adapted survive and reproduce more successfully than individuals that are not as well-adapted? | natural selection |
| What is a microscopic particle that gets inside a cell and often destroys it? | virus |
| A cycle in which a virus's genes live in a host but are inactive is? | lysogenic cycle |
| What is a type of medicine that keeps viruses from reproducing? | antiviral |
| What is a living thing that a virus or parasite lives on or in? | host |
| What is a medicine that does not kill viruses? | antiobiotics |
| What is something that viruses cannot use? | oxygen |
| What is a cycle in which a virus attacks a host and causes it to make viruses? | lytic cycle |
| What is a way to prevent viral infections? | vaccinations |
| What is the substance that protects a virus's genetic material and helps it get inside a cell? | Protein coat |
| What protects mollusks without shells? | the mantle |
| What functions to carry messages, help animals sense the environment, and help animals move? | neurons |
| What kind of echinoderms have a shell-like endoskeleton? | sea urchins and sand dollars |
