Evolution
a well-supported testable explanation of phenomena that have occurred in the natural world
Theory
similar structures (but different function)
Homologous Structure
an organism of one or more cells with membrane-bound nuclei
Eukaryotic
when one organism benefits from another by causing damage
parasitism
cell division that produces reproductive cells
Meiosis
modern organisms have descended from ancient organisms; change over time
Evolution
Bat wings vs. butterfly wings
both for flight but they are structurally different
Analogous Structure
having cells that lack membrane-bound nuclei
prokaryotic
when one organism benefits from another without damaging it
commensalism
the DNA template for protein synthesis
choose one
mRNA - t-RNA - ribosomal RNA
mRNA
organisms with traits well suited to their environment survive and reproduce at a greater rate than less well-adapted organisms
Natural selection
structure that are no longer serve and have important function.
appendix in humans
Vestigial Structure
organelle of a cell that makes proteins
Ribosome
the relation between two organisms that benefit each other
mutualism
In this phase of the cell division, DNA replication occur
G1 // S-phase // G2
S-phase
A scientist known as father of Theory of Evolution
Charles Darwin
Organisms have anatomical similarities when they are closely related because of common descent
TRUE - FALSE
True
a thin membrane enclosing the cytoplasm of a cell
Cell membrane
an animal or plant that lives in or on a host
parasite
Calculate the percentage of Adenine if in a double strand DNA piece has 22% Guanine
28
ability of an individual to survive and reproduce in its environment
Fitness
Similarities in embryology can be an evidence for evolution
TRUE - FALSE
True
The organelle in which nutrients are converted into energy.
Mitochondrium
the relation between two interdependent species of organisms
symbiotic
a change or alteration in DNA
mutation
