Hint Answer % Correct
Individuals of the same species in the same area, interbreeding. population
70%
Contemporary of Darwin, independently proposed evolution theory. alfred wallace
50%
Selective breeding by humans for desired traits in organisms. artificial selection
50%
Shifts the population towards one extreme phenotype directional selection
50%
Favors both extremes of a phenotypic range disruptive selection
50%
Group capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring. species
50%
Favors intermediate phenotypes, reducing variation stabilizing selection
50%
Population size reduction leading to loss of genetic diversity. bottleneck effect
40%
Proposed evolution by natural selection, influenced by HMS Beagle voyage. charles darwin
40%
Total alleles in a population at a specific time. gene pool
40%
Process favoring traits for survival and reproduction, leading to adaptation. natural selection
40%
Random allele frequency changes due to chance events. genetic drift
30%
Allele frequencies in a non-evolving population; governed by specific conditions. hardy-weinberg equilibrium
30%
Homologous structures indicate shared ancestry; vestigial structures show evolutionary remnants; Analogous structures serve same function, but structure is vastly different. comparative anatomy
20%
1. No mutations2. Random mating 3. No natural selection 4. Large population size 5. No gene flow conditions for hardy-weinberg equilibrium
20%
A force that tends to reduce differences between populations when:- population gains or loses alleles - gametes are transferred between populations gene flow
20%
Changes in allele frequencies within a population over generations. microevolution
20%
Traits acquired during life not inherited by offspring. acquired characteristics
10%
Similarities in embryonic development suggest common ancestry. comparative embryology
10%
New population with different allele frequencies from small group colonization. flounder effect
10%
Shows past life forms and evolutionary transitions in sedimentary rock layers. fossil record and strata
10%
Favoring genetic diversity through heterozygote advantage. hybrid advantage
10%
