OpenStudy (anonymous):

In order to be accepted, a theory, such as evolution, must be testable observable testable and observable neither testable nor observable ( i picked answer b }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this correct ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be C. A theory, in order to be accepted, has to be proven correct. To be proven correct it has to be both testable and observable.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :) next one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Scientists study fossils in order to predict how a species will react to weather. learn how species changed in the past. learn about what types of species will evolve in the future. predict weather patterns. (i picked b)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The theory of evolution describes how species reproduce. how species become extinct. how species change over time. how species migrate from place to place. (i picked c)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct again :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Darwin visited the Galapagos Islands several times. He observed some very unusual species. One species of bird, the finch, interested him. He observed some differences in the finches living on each of the islands. The finches had many traits in common however, each had a different beak. Some beaks were short some long. Some beaks looked straight while others curved. Darwin believed that each species of finch was related but had developed some special beak adaptations because there were different food sources on each island. What is the main idea of this paragraph? Darwin likes finches. Darwin observed that the finches had special adaptations. Darwin travelled to different islands. Finches are picky eaters.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i picked a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be B. Notice how he talks about the beaks and how the different beaks helped the birds eat certain foods.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Through studying specific species of animals on the Galapagos Islands and other places, Darwin observed that fossils are always evolving. how populations grow and shrink with weather patterns. how genetics affect diseases in animals. similar species in different areas with unique traits.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup, I think it's D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Natural selection does not select what a species needs. make favorable traits more common. help populations adapt. cause changes in a population. b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not entirely sure. I know it's either a or b. I'm gonna have to go with a, but again, I'm not positive. Go with your gut.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The theory of _______ tells us that favorable traits will become common in a population over time. mutation natural selection translation evolution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the theory of evolution.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Natural selection is included in the theory of evolution but this question is referring to evolution.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The theory of evolution does not describe how DNA is formed. support adaptation. say that populations change. support the process of natural selection.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I love Bio. It was my favorite class.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one would be A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

According to the scientific theory of evolution individuals have the same genes. only dominant traits are passed on from parent to offspring. populations change over time in response to changes in the environment. populations never change.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i like biology to but im not as good at it as you are :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one is C. because evolution refers to changes made by populations and species when needed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks :) I'm thinking about going to college for Bio.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o thats cool but i heard its pretty hard but then again if u really want to do it then it should be no problem for u :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The genetic make up of an individual is called the phenotype. genotype. DNA structure. characteristics.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one is genotype.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Phenotype is the physical characteristic.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i.e. brown eyes, blonde hair, etc. Genotype refers to the gene (hence GENotype)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets see what i get on it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait wait wait omg i got a 20 out of 20 :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Woohoo yay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your so awesome man i thank you so much now i am ready for the test :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Glad I could help. If you need anymore just tag me but I have to take an Algebra final so I'll be off and on.
