.
similarities of the birds' embryos.
birds' differently shaped beaks.
length of the birds' necks.
number of eggs in each bird's nest.

Considering the adaptations he observed in finches and
tortoises in the Galápagos, Darwin wondered
a
.
b
.
c
.
d
.
if animals living on different islands had once
been members of the same species.
if finches and tortoises had originated from the
same ancestral species.
if all birds on the different islands were

A
Darwin formulated his theory of evolution by natural
selection after
a experimentation with animals.
.
b observations of many species and their
. geographical distributions.
c reading the writings of Wallace.
.
d agreeing with Lamarck about the
. driving force behind evolution.
$400 Answer from H1
B
The wings of experimental fruit flies were clipped short
each generation for fifty generations. The fifty-first
generation emerged with normal-length wings. This
observation would tend to disprove the theory of evolution

a
.
b
.
c
.
d
.
inheritance of mutations.
inheritance of acquired characteristics.
natural selection.
survival of the fittest.

process involved is
a natural selection.
.
b artificial selection.
.
c artificial variation.
.
d survival of the fittest.
.
$300 Answer from H2
B
According to Darwin's theory of natural selection,
individuals who survive are most likely the ones best
adapted to exist in their environment. Their survival is
due to the
a possession of structures developed
. through use.
b possession of adaptations that
. maximize fitness.
c lack of competition within the
. species.
d ability to change their genotype.
.
$400 Answer from H2
B
