CHAPTER 1-INTRODUCTION
Across
- 3. region or chest supports the forelimbs
- 6. Analysis of vertebrate design proceeds in three general steps, each enhancing the other: The Function, The Biological Role and The ?
- 8. The course of evolution
- 12. refers to how the part is used in the environment during the course of the organism’s life history
- 14. Last name of the man who proposed mechanism of inheritance of acquired characteristics
- 16. Brought attention to the function that parts performed
- 18. Structure or behavior possesses the necessary form and function before
- 19. Last name of the man who determines that species were fixed and unchangeable
- 20. Last name of “Darwin’s Bulldog”
- 21. a method of placing fossils in a relative sequence to each other
- 24. a kind of biological blueprint
- 27. features with similar functions
- 29. Named group of an organism
- 32. plane separates it into anterior and posterior portions
- 33. Nearest to the body
- 34. is a synonym for a paraphyletic group
- 36. A kind of homology- similarity between successively repeated parts in the same organism
- 37. His answer centered on archetypes
- 38. Refers to the tail
- 39. is a lineage—all organisms in a lineage
- 40. means the action or property of a part as it works in an organism
Down
- 1. Refers to the head end
- 2. Last name of a respected specialist in ornithology He emphasized that the birds were endemic to the Galápago
- 4. Plane that splits into left and right portions.
- 5. is the term that has been coined to recognize the importance of ecological analysis in the examination of a morphological system.
- 7. is an inadvertent by-product of human saliva, without any adaptive role in the environment.
- 9. The way in which an animal’s body meets the surrounding environment
- 10. hypothesis about the lineages and their evolutionary relationships
- 11. Three issues of evolution: fact, course and ?
- 13. 2 or more features that share a common ancestry
- 15. last name of the Curator of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University
- 17. is the basis for recognizing a clad
- 22. is the study of how decay and tissue disintegration affect fossilization
- 23. Middle of the body
- 25. The Mesozoic is often termed the Age of
- 26. the proposed relationships of the animal (and its parts) to other species
- 28. The earliest eon
- 30. A body or structure built of repeating or duplicated sections is segmented
- 31. A kind of symmetry, only the mid-sagittal plane divides the body into two mirrored images, left and right
- 35. Farthest to the body
