What is a rapid change in ocean density with change in depth called?
Pycnocline
Is erosion a slow or rapid change?
Normally slow
Is earthquakes a fast or slow process?
An earthquake is a fast change, with most lasting less than a minute.
A zone rapid temperature change is called what?
Thernocline
A rapid change in density with depth in the ocean is called the?
pycnocline
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.
What is the theory that evolution occurs during short period of rapid change?
Equilibria
What sHow is long periods with little change in organisms followed by short periods of rapid change?
Evolution.
Shows long periods with little change in organisms followed by short periods of rapid change?
Evolution of man.
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.
The theory that evolution occurs during short periods of rapid change is puntuated?
Punctuated equilibrium.
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 the framers of the modern synthesis not use in formulating this synthesis a. populations as unit of evolution b. rapid change was prevalent c. natural selection was not imp?
b. rapid change was prevalent.
What models of evolution view change as occurring over a long time frame and at a relatively constant pace?
The view of evolution occurring relatively constantly over a long time frame is called gradualism. This stands in contrast to the view of long periods of stasis punctuated by relatively rapid change, usually caused by environmental change. This is called punctuated equilibrium.A modern view of evolution recognizes that both processes are at work.
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 is the model for rapid changes of evolution over a short time?
56 million years ago - the PETM - Warming led to massive mammalian Migrations.
A pattern of rapid evolutionary changes followed by long periods of no change is described as?
Punctuated Evolution or equilibrium
