1 Unit 6: Classification & Evolution Learning Target Success Criteria Self- Reflection 4-I totally get it. 3-I understand most of it. 2-I understand some of it, but I still need to work on it. 1-I really don't get it. List the types of evidence used to classify organisms and explain each one (2.4A). Identify the 6 kingdoms into which all life is classified. Explain the key features of each kingdom (uni/multicellular, prokaryotic/eukaryotic, autotroph/heterotroph, etc.). Write the taxons in order from most general to most specific. Write the scientific name for humans applying the proper rules. Explain why scientific names are beneficial. Define species. (5.2a)

2 Define theory (as used in science). Describe the process of natural selection. Define/explain evolution as done in class. Write the four parts of natural selection and explain what occurs in each. (5.1A) Use any sample population from nature to describe the four parts of the theory of natural selection. Describe why diversity is important to evolution. What is the main mechanism of (process that causes) evolution? (5.1B) Explain why, over long periods of time, populations of organisms become well-suited to their environments. (5.1e) Explain why sexual reproduction is an evolutionary advantage. Explain why genetic diversity within an ecosystem is important to the long-term survival of organisms.

3 What is the smallest unit (group) that can evolve? 5.3A Explain how new species arise. Use an example from nature to explain what might happen to a population lacking in genetic diversity. Explain which is the smallest unit/group that can evolve. Explain why an individual can't evolve. What is speciation? What does fitness mean in terms of evolution? What is geographic isolation? Reproductive isolation? Why are they important to speciation? (5.3B) How does a new species originate? (5.1d) Why are genetic mutations important for the survival of a species? (5.3A) Explain how a genetic mutation will effect an organism.

4 Describe how different structures can be used to support the theory of evolution. Define gene pool. What is genetic drift and how does it effect the gene pool? (5.2c) How would extinction affect a gene pool? (L5.p1C) Give an example (from any video, reading, or discussion) of how genetic variation and environmental factors resulted in evolution. (5.3C) Explain the difference between a homologous and an analogous structure. Give an example of homologous structures. Give an example of analogous structures. What is a vestigial structure? Give an example. How can DNA or protein sequences be used to estimate how closely related different organisms/species are? (5.2b)

5 How does comparative anatomy support the theory of evolution? (2.4d, 5.1f) How does the fossil record support the theory of evolution? (5.1f) Explain the role of scientists in the theory of evolution. How does biochemical/ genetic evidence support the theory of evolution? (2.4d, 5.1f) Why do evolutionary scientists study embryonic stages of development? (5.1c) Explain how the ideas of Lamark and Darwin differed. Whose were proven false scientifically? What is the approximate age of the Earth (in years) according to most scientists? What did Oparin's hypothesis say? According to most scientists, which gases were found in Earth's early atmosphere?

6 What happened in the Miller-Urey experiment? **Be able to explain why and how evolution is occurring when given scenarios. Review examples from class to prepare**
