Section 2.4
1- Define the process of natural selection.
The process by which organisms that are best adapted to their
environments survive and reproduce. The organisms that are less
adapted to their environment do not survive and reproduce.
2- What did Darwin study to propose the theory of natural selection?
A. Beaks of finches of the Galapagos islands.
B. horses.
C. Dinosaurs.
D. Rabbit legs.

3- Explain the relationship between natural selection and Evolution.

7

As species become better adapted to their environment, their

physical appearance and behavior often change. So natural selection
will occur which is the process by which organisms that are best
adapted to their environments survive and reproduce. Over long
periods of time, organisms can become very different from one
another. Evolution is the gradual change in species over time.
4- What is extinction?
The complete disappearance of all members of a species.
5- Which of the following is an environmental change that could
cause extinction?
A. Asteroids hitting earth.
B. Weather changes such as ice ages.
C. Change in food source.
D. All of the above.
6- A fossil is the remains/traces of an organism that lived long ago.
Fossils help us learns about the history of life on earth.
7- The geologic time scale shows when major groups of organisms
lived on earth and when they died out.
8- Evolution
A. Does not happen nowadays.
B. Is happening all the time.
C. Will happen only in the future.
D. Never happens.
9- Information about human evolution was collected from fossils.

THE END

GOOD LUCK
