there are two types of equilibrium are:
1. static (at rest position)
2. dynamic (in uniform motion)

What is the name of the theory that states species evolve during short periods of rapid change?
It is called Punctuated Equilibrium. Some Evolutionary apologists, notably Richard Dawkins, have down played this aspect of Neo-Darwinistic theory.
Which of the following correctly matches the equilibrium receptor to the type of equilibrium it monitors?
maculae/static equilibrium
What theory states that species stay the same for a long time and then change quickly because of environmental changes?
Good ol' punctuated equilibrium.
What is a model of evolution in which short periods of drastic changes in species are separated by long periods of little or no change?
Punctuated Equilibrium, I believe is the answer.
How does the punctuated equilibrium model of evolution states that evolution occurs rapidly?
Gradualism is the theory that evolution occurs slowly and consistently along periods of time. On the other hand, punctuated equilibrium is the theory that evolution does not occurs for long periods of time and then suddenly evolves rapidly in a small short period of time.
What is difference between physical and chemical balance?
The difference is that chemical equilibrium is the equilibrium of products and reactants in a reaction while physical equilibrium is the equilibrium of the physical states of the same substance.
What is the LeChatlier?
The Chatelier's Principle states that when a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing conditions then the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to reestablish equilibrium. A chemical reaction is at equilibrium and experiences a change in pressure, temperature, or concentration of products , equilibrium will shift in opposite directions to offset change.
In what system can reactants exist in the same physical states?
Heterogeneous Equilibrium
In what system can reactants exist in different physical states?
heterogenous equilibrium
What do the lines on phase diagram represent?
equilibrium between two states
In a heterogeneous equilibrium system the reactants and products exist in what?
Different physical states
How many generation is required of a random mating to reach equilibrium if the population if the population is not in equilibrium?

How does Le Chatelier's Principle apply to chemical systems?
Le Chatelier's principle is very important in studying the chemical systems in equilibrium. It states if an external stress is applied to a system in equilibrium, then the equilibrium shifts in a direction where the change can be neutralized.
What is consumer equilibrium?
consumer equilibrium states that consumer maximise his utility with the given income and with the given price or when a consumer getting maximum satisfaction with available resources then he will be in a state of equilibrium.
How the gradualism model of evolution differs from the punctuated equilibrium model of evolution?
The gradualism model of evolution states that change occurs gradually over time. On the other hand, the punctuated equilibrium model states that change occurs suddenly or rapidly.
What does Le Chtelier's principle state?
The Le Chtelier's principle states one thing. It is the dynamic equilibrium which is disturbed by changing the conditions and the position of equilibrium moves that makes a change.
Why is equiibrium referred to as dynamic?
Equilibrium is referred to as dynamic because in a system at equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions are occurring at the same rate. This means that while it appears that there is no net change in the concentrations of reactants and products, molecules are constantly being converted back and forth between the two states.
