5. How do Species and Population differ? a.i. Species:

a.ii. Population:

6. Which is the smallest unit that can evolve; species or population?

The people involved and their Proposals

_____ Developed the study of fossils, opposed evolution, Advocated catastrophism

_____Founded taxonomy, binomial nomenclature

______Developed a theory similar to Darwin’s accept 20 years after.

_____1st to state evolutionary change but had the wrong mechanism. Hypothesized that species evolve through use and disuse and through the inheritance of acquired traits.

_____First scientist to carry out a thorough study of the living world, developed an early classification system, established the modern concept of a species

_____This person’s view on life was descent with modification

_____Advocated Uniformitarianism (mechanism of change are constant over time)
