Darwin's ToE
Species that are similar but live "worlds apart" have a large
Geographic distribution
all genes that are present in a population are known as the
gene pool
how many domains are there
3
When I look at isotope decay half lives to tell the age of a rock what am I doing.
Radiometric dating
viruses are made of
nucleic acid & proteins
When one trait is more beneficial then another and is then more dominant in the next generations it is a trait caused by
natural selection
Genetic variation occurs in two major ways
gene shifting, and mutation
how many kingdoms are there
6
I proposed Continental Drift Theory
Alfred Wegner
does not have a nucleus or membrane bound organelles
prokaryote
Who said species evolve towards a state of perfection?
Lamarck
What are examples of genetic drift? (rapid evolution after equilibrium)
bottlenecking & mass extinction
Which is more general: kingdom or phylum
kingdom
What is evidence that supports continental drift?
fossil record & distribution, geographic fit, mountain ID, glacier ID, matching rock
two domains of prokaryotes
archaea & bacteria
What components lead to the Malthus trap?
Food required. Food produced.
Will take something similar
If I have two phenotypes (black and brown) and the allele frequency of black is 48%. What is the allele frequency of brown?
52%
What type of system do scientific names come from?
binomial nomenclature
What constitutes a species?
can reproduce and offspring can have offspring
the three archaeal groups
methanogens, halophiles, thermoacidophiles
What are types of evidence for evolution?
Analogous structure, vestigial structure, fossil record, embryonic development, genetics
Species changing to fit various dietary options is an example of
adaptive radiation
what is the difference between a phylogenic tree and a cladogram
phylogenic trees are based in evolution of all species & clades focus on a specific groups and their common ancestor
Extinction during normal periods of time is known as
background extinction
what are the steps of the lytic and lysogenic cycle
attachment, penetration, uncoating, replication, assembly, maturation, release
