organisms and their parts

different environments.




Darwin's 4 postulates of natural selection Correct answer-1. Phenotypes vary within
populations

2. Some of this variation is passed on to offspring

3. In every generation, more offspring are produced than can survive

4. Some individuals survive and reproduce more effectively that others, and this success is
associated with their phenotypes




predict Correct answer-Evolutionary reasoning allows us to ________ physiology based
on knowledge about local environments, not just

catalogue it across organisms and environments.




Intergrative Correct answer-Physiology affects and/or responds to all levels of biological
organization; Physiology is an inherently ________ discipline.




Mechanisms and Origins Correct answer-What are the 2 broad types of questions in
animal physiology about?

Adaptations Correct answer-Physiological mechanisms are almost always _________—
traits that have arisen as a result of natural selection.




Animal Physiology Correct answer-________ is an inherently integrative field of study
that asks questions about the origin of, and mechanisms underlying, animal function.




Evolutionary Correct answer-The field of animal physiology is based heavily in _______
biology, and specifically, the ways in which physiological features have arisen via natural
selection.




Predict Correct answer-Evolutionary theory allows us to ______ what physiological
functions a given species might have, and it gives us a basis for making hypotheses.




Continuous; dynamic Correct answer-The atoms of animal bodies undergo ________ and
_______ exchange with the atoms of their environments




organization Correct answer-In animals, it is the general ________ of these atoms that
persists through time, rather than the individual atoms themselves
