Bio 100 Exam 3 (Jaeger UNLV) Questions and Answers 100% Pass **Explain biotic potential.** Most populations can produce more offspring than the environment can support. **Define heritable.** Traits that can be passed on to the next generation. **Describe the concept of evolution of acquired characters.** Over time, an organism can accumulate enough changes that one species may diverge into two, tracing back through ancestral species. **List the five agents of evolution.** Nat...

Bio 100 Exam 3 (Jaeger UNLV) Questions and Answers 100% Pass **Evolution is defined as** any change in the phenotype of a population over successive generations due to genetic factors. **Common Descent with Modification entails** species undergoing modifications across generations. These changes can lead to the emergence of new, distinct species. **Species are** various types of organisms. Individuals within the same species share genetic similarities and can potentially interbre...
