Evolution & Diversity Test Review

Different, but related animals occupy different habitats in a small area

• Species Vary Globally
• Species Vary Locally
• Species Vary Over Time

Many organisms that were not the same, but similar, lived in very similar habitats around the world

• Species Vary Globally
• Species Vary Locally
• Species Vary Over Time

Some fossils of extinct animals were similar to living species

• Species Vary Globally
• Species Vary Locally
• Species Vary Over Time

Believed there were forces in the Earth that could create mountains and invented a concept called ‘deep time’

• Artificial Selection
• Hutton
• Lamarck
• Lyell
• Malthus

Suggested that organisms could acquire traits during their lifetime and that those traits could be inherited by their offspring

• Artificial Selection

• Lyell
• Malthus

Nature provides variations and humans choose those that they find useful

• Artificial Selection
• Hutton
• Lamarck
• Lyell
• Malthus

Said that the forces that shape Earth today are the same forces that shaped Earth in the past

• Artificial Selection
• Hutton
• Lamarck
• Lyell
• Malthus

Believed that war, famine, and disease would work against overpopulation in humans

Structures that are shared by related species and that have been inherited from a common ancestor

• Analogous structure
• Homologous structure
• Vestigial structure

Structures inherited from ancestors, but have lost much or all of their original function due to different selection pressures acting on the descendant

• Analogous structure
• Homologous structure
• Vestigial structure
