__________ hold DNA nucleotides together that produce its characteristic double helix.
What are Hydrogen bonds?
The strand of the DNA double helix from which RNA is transcribed.
Template strand
List benefits of studying evolution.
-Designing treatments to resistance in weeds/pests/pathogens
-Designing breeding programs to maximize crop yield/quality
-Protecting small/isolated populations from inbreeding depression
-Identifying key traits involved in adaptation to climate change
-Setting conservation priorities based on populations, species, to communities that harbor the greatest evolutionary diversity and potential
The four postulates (or logic) of Natural Selection according to Darwin and Wallace.
1)Individuals vary
2)Differences are heritable
3)Differential survival & reproduction
4)Survival & reproduction not by chance, but on traits
Name of the sugar in DNA.
What is Deoxyribose?
This person noticed certain fossils were found in the same layers of rock, but not found in other layers of different ages.
Who was Will Smith?
These structures are the result of divergent evolution which refer to the similar arm bones in humans and in wales.
What are homologous structures?
When DNA replication uses one DNA parental strand and synthesizes one new strand.
Semiconservative replication
This enzyme unwinds DNA to begin the process of transcription.
What is RNA polymerase?
Delivers Amino Acids to ribosomes to make proteins.
What are tRNAs?
This theory implies the Earth is VERY old due to the fact that natural process gradually shape the surface of the earth (which produce layers of rock over time with embedded fossils in them).
What is Uniformitarianism?
These structures are a result of convergent evolution, example: comparing a bat's wing and a butterfly's wing based on function.
What are analogous structures?
This type of RNA is created at the end of transcription that carries the message of the gene.
What is mRNA?
The sequence of 3 bases in tRNA that is complimentary to three bases mRNA.
Anticodon
Believed that organisms acquire characteristics based on use or disuse of a trait (Inheritance of acquired characteristics).
Who is Jean Baptiste Lamarck?
Theses are benefits of studying evolution.
Treatments of resistance by weeds, pests, pathogens; design breeding programs to maximize crop yields/quality; conservation biology; natural resource management; tackle inbreeding depression; improve biological diversity.
Where RNA goes next after it's been transcribed.
What is the cytoplasm/cytosol?
Transcribe this sequence: TACGGAATC
What is AUGCCUUAG?
The year "The Origin of Species" was published.
What is 1859?
List examples of biochemical evidence that suggests all life has descended from a common origin.
What are:
–Have DNA
–Use RNA, ribosomes, and roughly the same genetic code to create proteins
–Use roughly the same 20 amino acids to create proteins
-Use ATP for energy
