About evolution and natural selection flashcards
GoConqr OriginalEvolution and Natural Selection flashcards
The decks on this page offer different routes into the unit. Dino 101 Definitions includes terms such as palaeontology, fossils and adaptations. Other decks focus on topics such as speciation, variation, sexual selection and evidence for evolution.
How to use the decks
Start with Dino 101 Definitions if you want to practise vocabulary, or choose Speciation Definitions for a narrower topic. Look at a term and try to recall its meaning before checking the card. Return to the terms you find difficult rather than reading every deck at once.
You could then use Variation, Inheritance and Evolution to revisit a broader set of topics. If you want to see how ideas connect, switch to a mind map on the unit page; if you want to answer questions in a different format, try a quiz there. Pick a deck that matches the topic you are revising.
Frequently asked questions
Which flashcard deck should I start with?
For vocabulary practice, try Dino 101 Definitions, which includes terms such as fossils and adaptations. If you are concentrating on speciation, start with Speciation Definitions instead. Choose a term, recall what you can and then check the card before moving on.
What topics do the flashcards cover?
