Q

Darwin Argument

A
  1. Variation: individuals vary from their inheritance traits
  2. Over production: a species produces more offsprings that the environment can support

Q

Darwin Conclusion

A

1: individuals that adapt traits will produce more offsprings

#2: individuals: are unable to adapt their traits in different environment are more likely to die

Q

Natural Selection

A

1.Evolution occurs in population} not in individuals
2. Doesn’t create new traits} only edit or modify
3. Inheritable (increase/decrease) depends in population

Q

Analogues structure

A

Result of convergent
Two unrelated organism evolve to have similarities that’s due to the similar environment

Q

Genetic Drift & 2 types

A

Random fluctuation in allele frequency from one generation to the other

Q

Natural Selection 3 modes

A
  1. Directional selection= one phenotypes is favorable over the others
  2. Disruptive selection= both phenotypes extreme favorable over anything in between
  3. Stabilizing= needle phenotype founder over the extremes

Q

Species
- Prezygotic barrier

A

Prevent members from different species from mating to produce a zygote

20
Q

Postzygotic Barries

A

A mecanismos that blocks reproduction after fertilization and zygote formation

21
Q

Speciation
(Two types forms)

A
  1. Habitant Diffraction
  2. Sexual selection
22
Q

History of Life
3.5 Billion years ago

A

Prokaryotes first living organism in the planet

23
Q

1.8 billion years ago

A

Origin of Eukaryotes

24
Q

1.2 billion years ago

A

Origin of multicellular organism

25
540 million years
Cambrian Explosion (Diversity of organism)
26
400 million years ago
Life moves into land
27
250 million years ago
Permian Extinction
28
65 million years ago
Cretaceous moss extinction
29
I. Phylogeny Monophyletic group
Include one ancestor and all descendente is group 1
30
Paraphyletic group
Group include some ancestors but not descendants (group 2)
31
Polyphyletic group
Grouping organism that don’t share a common ancestor (group 3)
32
Gram Stain
Help to distinguish gram + and gram -
33
Gram Staining Procedures
1. Application of crystal violet - stain all bacteria purple 2. Application of iodine - fuss crystal violet in poptidylicon gram (+) bacteria 3. Alcohol wash - removes violet from gram (-) 4. Application of safranin - stain gram (-) pink
34
Resistance two types
1. Capsule = membrane the protects the cel wall, can release toxins (Gram - is more dangerous) 2. Endospore = a resistant structure that contain cloned DNA bacteria that removes dormant until environment is stable
35
Antibiotic Resistant
Envolve to have a genetic compound
36
Antibiotic Persistent
Attract bacteria while is dormant or sleep
37
Genetic Variation
1. Mutation 2. Transformation 3. Transduction 4. Conjugation
38
Nutrition 4 types
1.Photoautitrioph 2. Chemo 3. Photoheterotroph 4. Chemo
39
Protists
Eukaryote that is not a plant, animal or fungus
40
allopatric Speciation
geographic barrier that isolates population for gene flow
41
sympatic speciation and 2 types
speciation without a geographic barrier 1. habitan differation 2. sexual selection
42
endosymbiotic
some eukaryotic cell organelles, such as mitochondria and plastids, evolved from free-living prokaryotes
43
secondary endosymbiosis
the merging of two eukaryotic cells into one photosynthetic cellular unit
44
sister taxa
When two lineages stem from the same branch point
45
basal taxon
A lineage that evolved early from the root and remains unbranched
46
derived trait
is a trait that the current organism has, and previous one didn't.
47
Ancestral traits
are what the modern and ancestors had.
