Q

is a pharyngeal organ of uro- chordates,
cephalochordates, and primitive vertebrates. This organ has iodine-concentrating and iodine metabolism activities, and therefore the
endostyle is considered to be homologous to the follicle of these.

Q

This pathway involves the activation of cell
constituents to perform cellular metabolic processes. A ligand binding to its receptor conforming a signal to channel the secondary messengers inside the cell that gives another signal for the cell to perform a metabolic activity

23
Q

Three processes to alter development:

A
  1. Dissociation (heterochrony & Allometry)
  2. Duplication and Divergence
  3. Co-option
24
Q

An embryo can change in one region without the other altering through mutation or environmental disruption

A

Dissociation

25
Q

these changes can
occur together

A

spatial and temporal changes

26
Q
  • involve the space /environment in changes
A

spatial

27
Q

the factors change from one time to in
certain period of time

A

Temporal

28
Q

Change in the proportional time of two
developmental mechanisms that pass down from one generation to another (relative to the ancestors)

A

Heterochrony

29
Q

Two types of heterochrony

A
  1. paedomorphosis
  2. peramorphosis
30
Q

type of heterochrony that is child shape

A

paedomorphosis

31
Q

type of heterochrony that is ‘beyond-shape’ accelerated and early development

A

peramorphosis

32
Q

changes in a gene’s capacity to cause
or induce the response to the hormones that cause transformation or the metamorphosis to occur

A

gene mutation

33
Q

abnormal development
of the cells based on time

A

heterochronic expression

34
Q

● Different parts different growth rate
● Important to the body plan growth
- due to different development or growth
rate of the structure formed so it aid on
body plan or the actual outcome of the
organism structure that ultimately give
benefits to the organism

A

Allometry

35
Q
  • formation of unnecessary / other structures
A

Duplication

36
Q

give the formulated structure new roles (One
of the copies can maintain the original role while the others are free to mutate and diverge functionally.)

A

Divergence

37
Q

● No structure/components have singular
purpose/roles
● Structure or components can be used in many ways
● pre-existing units can be co-opted (recruited) for new functions.

A

Co-option

38
Q

procedure wherein an already-existing
unit or the organism protein or genes is repurposed for a new application and function.
- Found in molecular and morphological level

A

Co-opted

39
Q

A phenomenon in which multiple biological trait evolve together and how other structures change in response to the change of a single structure

A

Correlated progression

40
Q

A chemical messenger that is released by a cell to signal itself or other cells.

A

Ligands

41
Q

A protein that are inside or outside of the cell
that receives signals and give a response

A

Receptors A

42
Q

Three types of Developmental Constraints

A

● Physical Constraints
● Morphogenetic Constraints
● Phyletic Constraints

43
Q

physical factors that limit the formation of
mechanisms of an organism. These factors are Laws of diffusion, hydraulics, and physical support.
- Elasticity and tensile strengths of tissue

A

Physical constraints

44
Q

is the development of normal
structures that is controlled by the growth,
differentiation, and movement of cells, and tissues.

A

morphogenetic

45
Q
  • It involves morphogenetic construction rules such as the reaction- diffusion model that explain why some morphologies are forbidden
A

Morphogenetic constraints

46
Q
  • Historical restrictions based on the genetics of an organism’s development.
  • Once a structure comes to be generated by inductive interactions, it is difficult to start over again.
A

Phyletic constraints

47
Q
  • biological structures that have lost a major
    ancestral formation and are usually drastically reduced in size.
A

vestigial

48
Q

Evolutionary modifications of cytoplasmic
determinants in mollusc embryos can give
rise to new types of larvae that still
metamorphose into molluscs.

A

cytoplasmic determinants

49
Q

The formation of new body plans is inhibited by the need for global sequences of induction during this stage.
- Before and after this stage, there are many inductive events but almost all of them occur within discrete modules

A

Neurula stage

50
Q

development appears to be buffered so that slight abnormalities of genotype or slight perturbations of the environment will not lead to the formation of abnormal phenotypes

A

Canalization (Buffer systems of development)

51
Q
  • protein that binds to a set of signal transduction molecules that are inherently unstable.
  • provides a way to resist fluctuation due to slight mutation or environmental change
A

Heat shock protein Hsp90

52
Q

It has been one of the greatest
intellectual achievements of biology. By merging the traditions of Darwin and Mendel, evolution within a species could be explained: Diversity within a population arose from the random production of mutations, and the environment acted to select the most fit phenotypes.

A

Modern synthesis

53
Q

The supposition that all
evolutionary changes occur gradually was debated by Darwin and his friends

A

gradualism

54
Q

some major assumptions that have now been called into question

A
  • gradualism
  • extrapolation of microevolution to macroevolution
  • specificity of phenotype from genotype
  • lack of genetic similarity in disparate organisms
55
Q

The idea that accumulations of
small mutations result in changes leading to new species has also been criticized

A

Extrapolation of microevolution to
macroevolution
