History of the Earth
400 - Answer
Once living organisms (contained Carbon)
that are less than 100,000 years old.
The half-life of Carbon-14 is approximately
5,700 years, so there would be too little
Carbon-14 left to measure after 100,000
years.

History of the Earth
500 - Answer
As continents slowly moved, populations of species
were separated. Those that adapted to new
climates probably evolved into new species
after many generations.

Darwin’s Theory of Natural
Selection 200 - Answer
It shows that organisms
have changed over time.
Earth is old enough (4.6
billion years old) for
these changes to occur.

Maybe the different species of finches
on different islands had once been
part of the same species. They had
adapted over time to the conditions on
each island.

Natural selection is one way
of how evolution works.
Evolution is how species
change over time (generally
due to natural selection).

Evidence of Evolution 100 Answer
Many answers could be correct – as long
as it is a characteristic that
increases the survival and
reproductive success of that animal.
Ex: stripes of a tiger to make it more
camouflage, the long legs of an ostrich to
increase speed, etc.

Evidence of Evolution 200 Answer
When populations are separated by
barriers such as rivers or mountains.
They become isolated and will
eventually evolve into separate
species.

Homologous structures
- From a common ancestor
Game

Evidence of Evolution 400Answer
Analogous structures
- They appear to be similar on the outside,
but are different on the inside structurally
(anatomically). They did NOT evolve from
a common ancestor.

Random chance

Speciation
- A new species evolves because they
eventually evolve enough changes that
they no longer reproduce with the
original population.
Game

Shaping Evolutionary History 500 Answer
Adaptive radiation – new species evolve from
a common ancestor (branching tree),
generally rapid growth as the organisms
adapt to new conditions
Convergent evolution – unrelated species
evolve similar adaptations (analogous
structures), but they do not share a
common ancestor

C. Though disruptive selects for the shortest AND
longest necks, it is the only graph shown that does
select for short necks. Stabilizing stays stable
(middle lengths). The directional graph moves in
the direction of the longer necks.
