Study Notes
- Definition of life is still open to question
- Succulents are difficult to keep as houseplants due to their adaptation to dry conditions
- Orchid seeds are very small, while double coconut seeds are very large
- Darwin's theory of evolution applies to plants
- Archaeopteryx was an important fossil for understanding evolution
- Bones found in the woods were from a deer
- Dogs and foxes are too distantly related to crossbreed, but dogs and wolves can hybridize
- Evolution from water to land was a messy and complex process
- Climate change affects wildlife through movement, adaptation, and extinction
- Mutations occur in DNA copying and can introduce new traits, like blue eyes in humans. Extinct species cannot come back to life, but there are efforts to recreate them from ancient DNA.
Test your knowledge on evolution, adaptation, and wildlife by answering questions related to succulents, orchids, fossil discoveries, hybridization, mutations, and more.
