How do you compare Structures?

Comparative Anatomy

100

Lamark claimed you acquired traits based on _______________

Need

100

Darwin could not explain

Variations

100

Comparing DNA, proteins, RNA of species

Comparative Biochemistry

100

You have samples of a population where 36% of the population have 5 fingers , a recessive condition.

What is the frequency of q?

.6 or 60%

100

How many more times acidic is a pH of 1 compared to 5

1. 4000 times

2. Teritary

100

Common Ancestor to all?

A

200

The oldest fossils are located here

Lower layers

200

If a species cant adapt to a changing environment this occurs

Extinction

200

2 causes of variations

Sexual Reproduction

Meiosis

Mutations

Crossing Over (we will learn)

200

When organisms need the same food this will occur

Competiton

200

You have samples of a population where 49% of the population have 5 fingers , a recessive condition.

What is the freequency of p?

.3 or 30%

200

How does Speciation occur?

(1 species into 2 species)

They must separate and for millions of years and not be able to interbreed

Each population will have their own random mutations

Populations must be isolated for long periods of time without gene exchange

200

Extinct Organism?

many answers

300

Separating pigments according to density

Chromatography

300

What a species needs to adapt to a changing environment

Variations

300

Charge of DNA

Negative

300

Earth was formed

4.6 BYA

300

You have samples of a population where 81% of the population have 5 fingers , a recessive conduction.

What percentage of the population in Homozygous Dominant?

1% (.01)

300

Body part that no longer has use, but can show a common ancestor

Vestigial Structure

300

More closely related and why? E/I or E/C

E/I Because less common ancesotrs than E/C

400

Body parts that have similar structures, but different functions

Homologous

400

A term for the Survival of organisms genetically best adapted to the environment

Natural Selection

400

Which evidence (molecular or structural) is better to use to study evolution?  Explain why and give an example of how your evidence is used

Molecular is more accurate (precise)

Comparative DNA, Amino Acids, Proteins, Enzymes>>>

400

Name 2 criteria needed for a species to survive in a changing environment

(More likely to survive in a changing environment)

Large Population

Variation

Sexual Reproduction

Short Reproductive Cycle

400

You have samples of a population where 81% of the population have 5 fingers , a recessive conduction.

What percentage of the population are Heterozygous?

18%

400

Explain why insecticides are no longer killing the cockroaches in the school and we are seeing more and more

The have a variation,they reproduced and survive

500

Body parts that have similar functions but different Structures (ex:Bird and Butterfly Wing)

Analogous Structures

500

Name at least 3 of Darwins concepts

Overproduction

Competition

Variation

Reproduction

Natural Selection

Speciation

500

Explain how antibiotic resistant bacteria is increasing in frequency

Mutants, survive, reproduce, and pass on resistant gene to offspring

500

Where in the body do mutations have to occur in order for it to effect offspring?

Gametes

500

What is the purpose of Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium

See if Evolution is occuring

500

3 criteria of 1st organism

Unicellular

Heterotroph

Anaerobic
