I did this already....but i would like to see if i did it right .....bIOLOGY?

Question

Biology

Matching

Choices: genetic drift; gradualism; natural selection; divergent evolution; punctuated equilibrium; mass extinction; mutations; gene pool; convergent evolution; radioactive dating; use and disuse

a. all genes in a population
b. brief periods of change interrupt long stable periods
c. changes in gene frequency in small populations
d. changes occur gradually over time
e. Darwin
f. Determining age of fossils
g. Gene or chromosomal changes
h. Lamarck
i. Many species vanish at one time
j. Mendel
k. Unrelated species become less alike
l. Unrelated species become more alike

Then,

Number the steps of Darwin’s theory in order:

____ Struggle for existence
____ Overproduction
____ Natural Selection
____ Variation

Answer 1

a. gene pool
b. punctuated equilibrium
c. genetic drift
d. gradualism
e. natural selection
f. radioactive dating
g. mutations
h. use and disuse
i. mass extinction
j. (What's Mendel doing in this list?)
k. divergent evolution
l. convergent evolution

2
1
4
3

(Depending on your text and your teacher, 2 and 3 may be reversed.)

Answer 2

a= gene pool
b= punctuated equilibrium
c= genetic drift (?)
d= gradualism
e= natural selection
f= radioactive dating
g= mutations
h= use and disuse
i= mass extinction
j=
k= divergent evolution
l= convergent evolution



1- struggle for existence
4- overproduction
3- natural selection
2- variation

Are you missing a term for the matching?... there's 11 terms, 12 definitions (A through L...) Mendel developed the theory of genetics, genotyping, etc....

Answer 3

c, d, e, k, b, i, g, a, l, f, h
