E) Species do not change or go extinct; each species is so complex and perfect that it must have been designed by an intelligent being.
Microevolution describes the evolution of organisms over their lifetimes, while macroevolution describes the evolution of organisms over multiple generations. c. Microevolution describes the evolution of populations, while macroevolution describes the emergence of new species over long periods of time.
The species varies in the length of their legs; water levels rise and the habitat becomes swampy; the individuals with shorter legs are better able to swim to food; the population evolves to become shorter-legged.
c. an intermediate form between a more recent species and its presumed ancestor, the Parahippus, a horse with three toes. d. an intermediate fossil which can be found in the lowest layers of sediments, fossils of trilobites.
c. Male lions compete for the right to mate with females, with only one possible winner.
