EVOLUTION REVISION QUESTIONS EXAM BOOKLET
TERMINOLOGY - Give the correct biological term for each of the following descriptions. Write
only the term.

These descriptions have been extracted from multiple past exam papers over a number of years. Therefore don't be surprised if there are some repeats :) Just goes to show that going through past papers is VITALLY important as often the same questions come up.
