6
Structures of an organism that are of little to no importance to an organism that used to serve important functions
Vestigial structures
Homology

12
A process in which individuals with certain inherited traits leave more offspring than individuals with other traits.
Founder effect
Gene pool
Bottleneck effect
Natural selection
13
Some bacteria have become resistant to penicillin. This is probably because
Bacteria got mean
Bacteria acquired mutations that helped resist penicillin & then reproduced
Bacteria ate penicillin
Some bacteria destroyed penicillin as they adapted to their environment
14
Selective breeding to modify species over generations by selecting & breeding individuals that possess desired traits.
Artificial selection
Founder effect
