- mutation, non-random mating, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection
- temporal isolation, habitat isolation, behavioral isolation, mechanical isolation, and gametic isolation
- Reduced hybrid viability, reduced hybrid fertility, hybrid breakdown
- Where is most connective tissue derived from
- We don't really want a connection between the esophageal and tracheal areas of the gut tube, so what forms during the 5th week of development?
- Around which day does the secondary bronchial bud form? What day does the bronchioles form?
- What does the enamel organ give rise to?
- What has the longest developmental period of any organ
- Analyze changes in population size and biodiversity (speciation and extinction) that result from the following: natural causes, changes in climate, human activity, and the introduction of invasive, non-native species.
- What type of cells undergo mitosis and why is it important that the number of chromosomes remains constant?
- Compare and contrast the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration including the types of cells that perform each chemical reaction.
- Explain how evolution through natural selection can result in changes in biodiversity through the increase or decrease of genetic diversity within a population.
- Explain how water, carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous cycle between abiotic resources and organic matter in an ecosystem.
- Describe the basic structure and building block of DNA. Include a labeled diagram.
- According to the endosymbiotic theory, early eukaryotic cells acquired the mitochondrion from a symbiotic bacterium. What happened to the genes of that symbiotic bacterium?
- Does genome size correlate with organismal complexity?
- Economies of scale occur in major transitions when groups can perform tasks more efficiently than individuals. what is an advantage of economy of scale?
- The transition from unicellularity to multicellulatiry has occurred multiple times in independent lineages of eukaryotes. This indicated that multicellular eukaryotes are
- - DNA and RNA accumulate mutations over time- Two animals with similar sequences can be assumed to be closely related
- 1. Subjective criteria 2. Misidentifies polymorphic species 3. Misses cryptic species4. Cannot answer: Where do we draw the line between species?
