Question
Answer
Common Ancestor   show
🗑
Fossil Record   show
🗑
Biogeography   show
🗑
Anatomical Homologies   show
🗑
show genes shared due to common ancestry (may be studied as proteins or amino acid sequences)  
🗑
Developmental Homologies   show
🗑
Natural Selection   show
🗑
show any alteration in the structure or function of an organism or any of its parts that results from natural selection and by which the organism becomes better fit to survive and multiply  
🗑
show degree of variation of life forms within a given ecosystem  
🗑
show mutation, migration (gene flow), genetic drift, and natural selection  
🗑
Genetic Drift   show
🗑
Gene flow   show
🗑
mutation   show
🗑
show a process that results in heritable changes in a population spread over many generations. Occurs in a population; not an individual  
🗑
artificial selection   show
🗑
vestigial structure   show
🗑
homology   show
🗑
analogy   show
🗑
Differential Reproductive Success   show
🗑
variation   show
🗑
show alleles for traits are passed from one generation to the next  
🗑
phylogeny   show
🗑
show A kind of evolution where organisms evolve structures that have similar structures or functions in spite of their evolutionary ancestors being very dissimilar or unrelated  
🗑
divergent evolution   show
🗑
show The physical separation of members of a population. Populations may be physically separated when their original habitat becomes divided. Limits a population's ability to move freely. Example: when new land or water barriers form.  
🗑
directional selection   show
🗑
show Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that selects against the average individual in a population; rare  
🗑
stabilizing selection   show
🗑
speciation   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
