Is the process of evolution most commonly seen as a rapid change in the characteristics of an individual organism?
No - individuals do not evolve, as each individual's genes do not change, and evolution is defined as the change in allele frequencies over time.
What is the model in of evolution in which periods of rapid change occur is called?
Selective breeding is used for more rapid evolution or artificial breeding.
How did Darwin think evolution occurred?
Darwin thought evolution occurred in short periods of rapid change. For example, when he traveled to the Galapagos he observed how different species on each island had various characteristics that helped them adapt to their environment. From this you can infer that Darwin's belief was punctuated equilibrium.
The theory that evolution occurs during short periods of rapid change is puntuated?
Punctuated equilibrium.
What rapid evolution can come about by the mutation of just a few genes?
Nowadays, it's called a "birth defect".
Scientists have observed evolution in a rapid time scale in what organism?
Bacteria
Which organism was reported to have experienced rapid evolution in a lake in Germany?
Hydra
What did the scientists see in a submersible observed the mid- ocean ridge?
Rocks formed by the rapid hardening of molten material.
Is the process of evolution is most commonly seen as a rapid change in the characteristic of and individual organism true or false?
That is false.
What statement best demonstrates the strength of this theory?
Scientists have observed tiny smoke particles moved by unseen particles in a rapid, irregular fashion
What is the definition for rapid evolution?
Rapid evolution is where the subjective species in a population is considered to be evolving in an unusually high frequency and rate, thus 'rapid' evolution is occuring.
Is the process of evolution most commonly seen as a rapid change in the characteristics of an individual organism?
No - individuals do not evolve, as each individual's genes do not change, and evolution is defined as the change in allele frequencies over time.
What did scientists in a submersible see when they observed the mid ocean ridge?
Scientists in a submersible saw rocks formed by the rapid hardening of molten material when they observed the mid ocean ridge. They only saw these after rocking the submersible in every direction.
What is the model in of evolution in which periods of rapid change occur is called?
Selective breeding is used for more rapid evolution or artificial breeding.

Model of evolution showing rapid change?
