Animals that eat the most food become the most abundant. Animals that restrict their food intake will become less abundant. Animals with mutations that give rise to effective structures will become more abundant. Animals with parents that continually improve their offspring's structures will become more abundant. Animals with inventions that curtail reproduction will become more abundant.arrow_forwardCan you suggest why, during the evolutionary history of animals, there has been a tendency for maximum body size to increase?

- What does the novel Brave New World suggest is necessary in human life for people to “live significantly”?arrow_forwardFor this activity, you should familiarize the diverse group of vertebrates and make a phylogenetic tree showing their evolutionary relationships. This tree should be primarily based on physical characteristics, such as: I. Presence or absence of a backbone II. Ability to breathe in air or water III. Cold or warm blooded IV. Carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore V. Presence or absence of hair/fur VI. Any other external structure such as horns TO DO: Lay all the animals on their desks and separate them into two groups using the physical characteristics above☝ The animals are on the picture.arrow_forwardLiving things can inherit behavior, learn it from other creatures, or change their behavior because of their environment. Which example describes learned behavior in a living thing? A) Sunflowers turn to face the Sun to help them grow. B) Most humans begin to speak when they are one or two years old. C) Glowing Click Beetles can produce light from the back of their head for protection. D) A sea turtle that hatches on a beach will crawl toward the ocean.arrow_forward
