1. Hawaiian honeycreepers are a group of birds with similar body shape and size. However, they vary greatly in color and beak shape. Each species occupies its own niche and is adapted to the foods available in its niche. The evolution from a common ancestor to a variety of species is an example of _____.
divergent evolution
cross-pollination
vegetative propagation
convergent evolution
2. _____ selection favors one extreme form of a trait in a population.
Directional
Stabilizing
Disruptive
Natural
3. Which answer BEST shows an animal’s adaptation to the tropical rain forest?
camouflage in a tree frog
the long neck of a giraffe
an elephant’s long trunk
migration of birds in winter
4. Upon close examination of the skeleton of an adult python, a pelvic girdle and leg bones can be observed. These features are an example of _____.
artificial selection
homologous structures
vestigial structures
comparative embryology
5. Which of the following is not a factor that causes changes in the allelic frequencies of individuals in a population?
stabilizing selection
directional selection
random selection
disruptive selection

One, giant, festering hole in the theory of gravity is that physicists can’t explain *why* large masses attract smaller masses. They can explain how, but this little piece of missing knowledge is worse than the pffft, “theory” of evolution.
I mean, we all know it’s a fact that allelic frequencies vary in a population over time, and that those alleles which contribute to a species survival in it’s niche increase over time. We also know that the “theory” of evolution explains these observed facts. BUT, no one can explain *why* gravity works the way it does.
Take that gravitationists! It looks like the hundreds of thousands of biologists all over the world are on to something, while you’re just peddling what amounts to scientific smut. STOP teaching the lie of gravity in our schools!
Now, if you’ll excuse me I need to go slap my chest, try to bite my ear, and stick square pegs into round holes.
