What is the founder effect?
What is the reduced genetic diversity that results when a population is descended from a small number of colonizing ancestors.
100
What theories did Charles Darwin formulate
What is evolution and natural selection
100
What must the allele frequencies always equal
What is 1
100
What does all life have
What is DNA
100
What is a zygote
What is a diploid cell resulting from the fusion of two haploid gametes; a fertilized egg
200
What are vestigial structure
What is an organ that does not function anymore due to evolution and not using it anymore.
200
What are the 5 assumptions of the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium theory?
What is no genetic migration, infinite population size, no mutation, no genetic migration, and no natural selection
200
What is the central dogma
What is DNA->RNA->Protein
200
How many chromosomes are there after sexual reproduction
What is 46 chromosomes
300
What is ecological stress
What is physical, chemical, and biological constraints on the productivity of species and on the development of ecosystems
300
What are homologous structures
What is an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor.
300
What is the Hardy Weinberg Equation
What is p^2+2pq+q^2=1
300
What are the domains of life
What is Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya
300
What is the difference between meiosis and mitosis
What is meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell and mitosis is type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus
400
What are some things that can lead to a mass extinction
What is Asteroid impacts, climate change, volcanoes - there have been many theories about the causes of mass extinctions
400
What species did Darwin look at in the galapagos islands
What is finches
400
Lets say Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium is happening on our planet to humans, how many people will have the ability to roll their tongue when the population gets to 100,000
What is 10,000
400
What are the three main purposes of the metabolism
What is the conversion of food/fuel to energy to run cellular processes, the conversion of food/fuel to building blocks for proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and some carbohydrates, and the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.
400
What is a prezygotic barrier and provide an example
What is Pre-zygotic barriers are obstacles that are present before an egg can be fertilized. Some example are temporal isolation, ecological isolation, behavioral isolation, and mechanical isolation.
500
What are the three types of natural selection
What is stabilizing selection, directional selection, & diversifying selection
500
What influences evolution
What is genetic variation between individuals, natural selection, sexual recombination.
500
What is the point of the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium equation
What is to discover the probable genotype frequencies in a population and to track the changes from one generation to the next
500
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
What is aerobic uses oxygen and anaerobic does not
500
What is the main difference between sexual and asexual reproduction in genetics
What is Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring.
