Answer:

1 - natural selection

2 - uniformitarianism

3- inheritance of acquired characteristics

4 - catastrophism

Explanation:

1. Natural selection refers to the evolution of organism or changes in the characterstics of organism depending on the environmental conditions. Hence, the lizard moved on fantasy island evolved with larger head and stronger bites as per the environmental condition.

2. The concept of Uniformitarianism states that the natural geological processes happening in present have already occured in past with same intesity and rate. Hence, geologist uses the phrase "The present is the key to the past" for formation of mountain, rock formation and water movements.

3. Inheritance of acquired characteristics are the characteristic acquird by the ancestors and transmitted that gradually acquired characteristic to their progeny. Hence, the rats acquire the charactieristics and transfered it to the next generations.

4. Catastrophism means the regular occurrence of meteorological and geological disturbances to explain the existence the fossil record. Hence, teh mass exticiton due to asteroid impact is an example of Catastrophism.

So, the correct options in sequential order is natural selection, uniformitarianism, inheritance of acquired characteristics, and catastrophism.

List three changes of state during which energy is absorbed.

mote1985 [20]

The three changes of state during which energy is absorbed are:

1. Change from solid to liquid - Melting.

2. Change from liquid to gas - Vaporization

3. Change from solid to gas - Sublimation

All these changes of state require heat energy to break the attractive forces that hold the particles of the molecules together, so that they can move into more disorderly states. For instance, when heat is applied to a solid, the solid absorbs the heat and use it to break the attractive forces that are holding the molecules of the solid together. At a particular temperature, the attractive forces will be completely overcome and the solid framework will collapse, thus leading to the melting of the solid.
