Studied Evolution, traveled around the world - specifically the Galapagos Islands.
Who is Charles Darwin.

Daily Double; On a separate peice of paper, write down these answers (In the form of a questions!!!): 1. This is an example of a prezygotic barrier. 2. This is an example of a postzygotic barrier.
What is: 1. Habitat isolation, Temporal isolation, Behavioral isolation, Mechanical isolation, Gamete isolation. 2. Zygote mortality, Hybrid sterility, F2 fitness.
100
These are noncellular, non-living, and can contain RNA or DNA.
What is a Virus?
100
These are the most numerous unicellular algae found in oceans and freshwater environments and live inside "glass houses."
What is a diatom?
100
These DNA sequences differ by a single nucleotide and are responsible for genomic variations in humans.
What are Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs)?
200
These types of structures are anatomically similar because they are inherited by a common ancestor.
What is a homologous structure?
200
This type of speciation does not require a geographical barrier.
What is sympatric speciation?
200
These are all the steps of the life cycle of a virus.
What is Attachment, Penetration, Biosythesis, Maturation, and Release?
200
These are unicellular eukayotes that live in wet locations, can produce sexually and asexually, and can be very small or very big.
What are protists?
200
This term defines where a species lives and how it interacts with other species.
What is an ecological niche?
300
No mutations, no natural selection, no gene flow, (yes)random mating, and no genetic drift make up the 5 conditions of this principle.
What is the Hardy-Weinberg Principle.
300
This term defines a chromosome number that is beyond the diploid (2n) number.
What is Polyploidy?
300
Daily Double; Get out a piece of paper and write down the answers to these questions (In the form of a Question!!!). causes (1) These cause proteins to misfold and (2) this is a type of disease that they cause.
What is Prions and Mad Cow disease?
300
This genus is a nonmotile organism that is repsonsible for malaria.
What is Plasmodium?
300
A type of gene transfer between bacteria that involves the use of a pilus.
What is conjugation?
400
This is the movement of alleles between populations.
What is gene flow?
400
Some paleontologists think that this type of model, which explains that species appear suddenly, and then they remain essentially unchanged phenotypically until they undergo extinction, is the pace in which evolution occurs.
What is Punctuated equilibrum?
400
This process is performed by prokayotes and results in asexual reproduction.
What is Binary Fission?
400
These organisms are responsible for the White Cliffs of Dover, England.
What are Foraminiferans?
400
A form of symbiosis that harms the host.
What is parasitism?
500
Daily Double; On a piece of paper, write down these answers (in the form of a question!!!): List the two different types of genetic drift.
What is the bottleneck effect; (i.e. Cheetahs). What is the founder effect; (i.e. 6-fingered Amish).
500
According to this concept, members of a species share the same distinct evollutionary pathway, diagnostic traits distinguish one species from another, and all members of a species are reproductively isolated.
What is the Evolutionary Species Concept?
500
Three examples of this would be Parasitism, Commensalism, and Mutualism.
What is symbiosis?
500
These organisms are thought to be responsible for introducing oxygen into the earth's early atmosphere.
What are Cyanobacteria?
500
A symbolic relationship between algae and fungi.
What is a Lichen?
