V- represents Variation between beings
I- represents Inheritance of genes
S- represents Selection of a mate
T- represents Time and its passing to allow evolution to occur]]> 2018-05-10 21:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259796867 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259798781 This describes the natural way an organism that has less efficient, or less desirable features will not be suited to breed, or even live long enough to breed.]]> 2018-05-10 21:51:11 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259798781 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259800617 Mutations occur randomly in Deoxyribonucleic Acid, and occasionally they are helpful. For instance, an animal may have the mutation of an extra antler, but if it helps the animal to breed and live longer, that mutation will become common of the species. ]]> 2018-05-10 22:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259800617 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259801615 Shows the way a population can be exposed to another species, so that they share traits. ]]> 2018-05-10 22:11:12 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/259801615 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260088729 The three different ways a species can interact with another are living convergently, divergently, and at a parallel state. Converging means that two species come together to become one line of organisms. Divergent means that one species becomes two, usually by evolving in two locations. Parallel means that two species do not interact. ]]> 2018-05-11 21:41:31 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260088729 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260089883 This refers to the way an animal chooses a mate by deciding which characteristics why wish for their children to inherit. If a specific bird chooses a mate that is only larger, or more colorful, then the offspring will be larger and more colorful, changing the species indefinitely if this process continues.]]> 2018-05-11 21:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260089883 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090158 The changing of genes in specific organisms, either by becoming more prominent or becoming more recessive, is the genetic drift of that population.]]> 2018-05-11 21:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090158 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090426 These structures are what originally sparked the realization that evolution is a part of earth's history. Finding homologous structures, or the same type of bodily structures or functions, in different species shows that they came at one point from the same organism.]]> 2018-05-11 21:57:43 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090426 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090612 Are organs found in most animals, and are non functional organs that have been left over from out evolutionary ancestors. For instance, the appendix in the human body. This is an organ that no longer has function, but helped our ancestors to process raw meat. ]]> 2018-05-11 21:59:58 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260090612 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260091177 Is a phrase which states that Ontogeny, or an organisms development, recapitulates (re-expresses) Phylogeny, or the  determination of an organisms physical components. ]]> 2018-05-11 22:08:38 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260091177 clayton_kovitch https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260091395 This is describing the change, or evolution, of the molecular structure of an organisms DNA. Molecular evolution is the change we see not in an organisms physical appearance, but in the blueprints that determine the appearance of the animal. ]]> 2018-05-11 22:12:44 UTC https://padlet.com/clayton_kovitch/eph7jrrtv2bm/wish/260091395
