Hint	Answer	% Correct
Contemporary of Darwin, independently proposed evolution theory.	alfred wallace	80%
Selective breeding by humans for desired traits in organisms.	artificial selection	80%
Proposed evolution by natural selection, influenced by HMS Beagle voyage.	charles darwin	80%
Process favoring traits for survival and reproduction, leading to adaptation.	natural selection	80%
Individuals of the same species in the same area, interbreeding.	population	80%
Total alleles in a population at a specific time.	gene pool	60%
Allele frequencies in a non-evolving population; governed by specific conditions.	hardy-weinberg equilibrium	60%
Group capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring.	species	60%
Population size reduction leading to loss of genetic diversity.	bottleneck effect	40%
Homologous structures indicate shared ancestry; vestigial structures show evolutionary remnants; Analogous structures serve same function, but structure is vastly different.	comparative anatomy	40%
1. No mutations 2. Random mating 3. No natural selection 4. Large population size 5. No gene flow	conditions for hardy-weinberg equilibrium	40%
Shifts the population towards one extreme phenotype	directional selection	40%
Favors both extremes of a phenotypic range	disruptive selection	40%
A force that tends to reduce differences between populations when: - population gains or loses alleles - gametes are transferred between populations	gene flow	40%
Random allele frequency changes due to chance events.	genetic drift	40%
Changes in allele frequencies within a population over generations.	microevolution	40%
Favors intermediate phenotypes, reducing variation	stabilizing selection	40%
Similarities in embryonic development suggest common ancestry.	comparative embryology	20%
New population with different allele frequencies from small group colonization.	flounder effect	20%
Shows past life forms and evolutionary transitions in sedimentary rock layers.	fossil record and strata	20%
Favoring genetic diversity through heterozygote advantage.	hybrid advantage	20%
Large-scale evolutionary patterns like new species origins.	macroevolution	20%
Influenced Darwin with theory on population growth and resources.	thomas malthius	20%
Traits acquired during life not inherited by offspring.	acquired characteristics	0%
Competition within the same sex for mating opportunities.	intersexual selection	0%
Competition within the same sex for mating opportunities.	intrasexual selection	0%
DNA and protein sequences reveal evolutionary relationships.	molecular biology	0%
Genetic variation without selective advantage or disadvantage.	neutral variation	0%
Provide new genetic variation for natural selection.	role of mutations in evolution	0%
Stabilizing, directional, and disruptive selection favoring different phenotypes.	selection types	0%
Distinct appearance differences between male and female of a species.	sexual dimorphism	0%
