Evolution Flashcards
Chemical evolution is
Life started from chemicals mixing together to make a cell
List the sequence of creation
D1: light
D2: separated sky and sea
D3: separated sea from land (after their kind, beginning of life)
D4: sun, moon, stars
D5: sea creatures and birds
D6: land animals/ man (special life) life is in the blood
What are proteins jobs
Make energy, clean cell, more jobs
Cells are made of thousands of what?
Proteins
Ameno acids are
Part of proteins that make chains
Amino acids need what to turn into proteins
Precise arrangements
What is the language of life
The assembly instructions for amino acids
If there is no self replication there’s no what
No cell
When amino acids have rights organizations they rollup into what
A 3-D object
What is good science
Observation of the facts
What does genetic variation mean
Variety within kind
The popular understanding of what is taken to mean Variety within kind however what really means is mutation, errors, mistakes
Microevolution
What is microevolution
Change over time genetic variation microevolution macro evolution microevolution is not genetic variation and unfortunate name micro random mistakes a case study the fruit fly a quote by evolutionist and a genetist A conclusion on the fruit fly
What is an example of macro evolution
Nonliving matter evolves into a living cell which evolves into an invertebrate which evolves into a fish which evolves into the amphibian which evolves into a reptile which involve to birds and mammals which the mammal evolves into humans
What is an example of a false start or bad science
Apeman: piltdown man
Evolution is currently being defined to mean what
Change over time
What is natural selection
The ability to adapt to the environment survival of the fittest only works with existing phenotypes develop from existing genotypes can't generating new information macroevolution requires new information
Bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics
Previously lost characteristics
Resistance already existed
What did Charles Darwin do
He observed isolated population of fitches
certain genetic variation evolution
Microevolution is not what
Genetic variation
A type of bird with different sizes and shapes of beaks being example of
Macro evolution
Eyes have blank rod and blank cones
Ten million rods and 6 million cones
Rods have a high rate of what and must replace themselves every seven days
Metabolism
Eyes can perform 10 billion what per second
Calculations
What is thermodynamics
Study of heat ,movement and energy
What is energy
The measure of the system’s ability to do work
Energy is required to do what
Work
Evolution is what
An upward movement in order and complexity
What is the first law of thermodynamics
Matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed. all matter and energy in the universe is being conserved
According to evolution where did the original matter and energy come from
Faith
What is the second law of thermodynamics also referred to
The law of increasing entropy
What is the second law of thermodynamics
Energy goes from state of usable energy to a state of less useable energy for doing working in isolated system
What does the second law of thermodynamics also state
Entropy of the entire universe always increases
What is entropy
A measure of the unavailability of a systems energy to do work
What are the three types of systems
Open, closed, isolated
Does the definition of evolution apply to all types of evolution
No evolution plus change
Does this definition apply to microevolution
No every change that takes place isn’t major
Mutations don’t produce what
New evolution
Give three examples of genetic variation
Dogs cats people
Did microevolution lead to Macroevolution
No
A type of bird with different sizes and shapes of beaks is an example of
Genetic variation
Can natural selection cause one kind to becoming a new species
No it works only in existing information
Natural selection mean Two things
Survival of the fittest and the ability to adapt to the environment
Give one reason why mutations are not a valid argument for how life evolved
There is no known mutation that caused an increase in definition
What is an example of a cow changing into whale overtime
Macro evolution
What is an example of a seven foot person and a five foot person
Genetic variation
What is an example of a random mutation in DNA
Genetic variation
In order for macro evolution to occur what must be added to DNA
Information
Hypothesis is a
An unverified scientific explanation
What does heat measure
The molecular velocity within a system
Hot always flows to
Cold
What is equilibrium
When all molecules in the system are moving at the same velocity
What is the difference between an open system and it isolated system
Open: exchange both matter and energy within surroundings
Isolated: cannot exchange matter or energy with surroundings
How does the second law of thermodynamics relate to chemical evolution
Describe flow of energy in nature. how did cells organized themselves with less usable energy
