1
Of the 4 basic data sets discussed in this module, which is the only one to NOT have evidence against macroevolution?
The fossil record
Molecular Biology
The Geologic Column
Structural Homology
2
Is mutation the only way bacteria becomes immune to the effects of an antibiotic?
No, conjugation and transformation also cause immunity
No, natural selection also causes immunity
Yes, mutation is the only cause for immunity
3
According to natural selection, certain individuals will leave more offspring than others. What causes this?
Possesion of adaptation developed through use
Choices made by plant and animal breeders
Possession of inherited adaptations that are well-suited for environment
Lack of competition within species
4
The species of finches that Darwin found displayed different adaptations. What was one that Darwin noted?
Length of the birds' necks
Number of eggs in each nest
Similarities of the birds' embryos
Birds' different-shaped beaks
5
What is the process called when farmers breed only their best livestock?
Artificial selection
Artificial variation
Survival of the fittest
Natural selection
6
The theory that more specialized species can descend from a common ancestor
Structural Homology
Macroevolution
Microevolution
7
Distinct layers of rock
Strata
Soil
Fossils
8
Structural homology, the fossil record and molecular bio all provide evidence AGAINST macroevolution
False
True
9
The study of similar structures in different species
Macroevolution
Microevolution
The immutability of the species
Structural homology
10
The neo-Darwinist hypothesis differs from the hypothesis of Darwin saying mutations add info to the genetic code
True
False
11
The idea that each individual species on the planet was specially created by God and could never fundamentally change
Strata
The immutability of the species
Structural homology
Microevolution
12
The geologic column provides conclusive evidence AGAINST macroevolution
True
False
13
The hypothesis that new and different organisms can descend from a common ancestor
Microevolution
Macroevolution
The immutability of the species
14
Preserved remains of once-living organisms
Rocks
Strata
Fossils
15
What is the immutability of species?
Mutations add information to the genetic code
A species can change in as little as one generation
Each individual species on the planet was specifically created by God
16
What does the hypothesis of punctuated equilibrium propose?
Tries to explain why there are no intermediate links in the fossil record
It represents a link between one species and another
17
A dog breeder continues breeding fast dogs over generations, creating the fastest dog in the world. What is this?
Macroevolution
Microevolution
