What is Transcription?
The Process of creating RNA from DNA. RNA polymerase attaches to the promoter and unwinds DNA strands, Polymerase reads DNA strand and builds a complementary RNA strand from the template strand. At the termination site, the building stops, and the DNA rewinds. Forming preRNA or messenger RNA (mRNA)

Name one of the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium requirements and explain how it affects Gene frequency.
NO selection: If one particular trait is advantageous over the other, there is not gonna be a change in how often that trait will appear.
NO Mutation: If there are mutations, then there will be variation which we DO NOT WANT.
NO migration (No gene flow): If there is gene flow, then new versions of a trait enter the gene pool. No changing allele frequencies and evolution would stop.
Large Population: If a population is small then, there is the risk that a chance event could significantly alter the frequency of traits in the remaining population. (Genetic drift)
Genetic drift: changes allele frequencies- Bottleneck effect, or founder effect
Random mating: Certain traits will not be more common than others.

How do you calculate Population Growth?
To find the change in y, find the population, subtract the years and divide it by the number of years(SLOPE)

What is the difference between a carbon sink and a carbon source?
A carbon source is something that releases carbon into the atmosphere, and a sink is something that removes carbon from the atmosphere.

Natural Selection

What is the difference between Primary Succession and Secondary Succession?
Primary Succession- #1:
Occurs in new areas or areas with no soil.
Pioneer species inhabit these areas. (Lichen, Moss)
Secondary Succession- #2:
Soil remains: occurs when an existing ecosystem has been destroyed. (Flood, Natural Disasters)
Fire destroys plant growth-> New smaller plants inhabit area→ larger plants inhabit the area
