All are levels of living things; biomes are the most general (parts of the biosphere) and organisms are the most specific. Ecosystem includes both biotic and abiotic factors while community just includes the living organisms that interact. Populations are individuals of the same species found in the same area while organisms are individualsWhat is an organism’s habitat? What is its niche? Habitat is an organism’s address: where it lives while the niche is its job: how the organism makes a living and is adapted to its environmentPredator-Prey Relationships In the graph below, which organism is the prey? __Hare___ Which is the predator? __Fox___Which population increases (or falls) first and why? Hare; few predators to control populationWhich population increases (or falls) second and why? Foxes; takes a while for there to be enough food for foxes to have lots of babiesWhy are predator/prey relationships important in an ecosystem? (Consider population dynamics in your answer.) The predators help regulate the prey population so the prey does not eat up or destroy all of the vegetation.

Exponential How did the rise of human agriculture create a significant impact on the Earth? What kind of technology was used to feed the growing human population? Agriculture allowed the human population to increase. Many natural ecosystems were destroyed and species became extinct to create farm land. Pesticides entered the food chain and fertilizers and soil erosion damaged aquatic systems. The Green Revolution: new varieties of crops with better yield but need more pesticides, irrigation and fertilizer. More recently genetically engineered crops that are resistant to disease or pesticides or have higher yield. What is the effect of resources (which are limited) on unlimited human population growth?

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that can increase global warming. Methane produced by bacteria in livestock and from landfills is another greenhouse gas.What are some possible effects of global warming? Spread of tropical diseases to temperate zones; extinction of species; more variation in weather; erosion of beaches; rise of sea level; decrease crop yield; melting of permafrost; open arctic ocean; longer growing periodsWhat are some ways that carbon production can be decreased? Plant more trees/ reduce deforestation. Use less fossil fuels. What effect do volcanoes have on the atmosphere? Release of ash, particulates and sulfur dioxide can reduce the light the hits the earth surface and make the earth colder. Release of large amounts of methane and carbon dioxide can trap heat and warm the atmosphere. What is an invasive or non-native species? How can they cause negative effects on an ecosystem? Non-native is a species from some other geographic location. Invasive is a species that lacks natural biotic or abiotic factors that can control the population.

Valine—Phenylalanine —Alanine Bio.3.1.3 Explain how mutations in DNA that result from interactions with the environment (i.e. radiation and chemicals) or new combinations in existing genes lead to changes in function and phenotype.What happens to DNA when a mutation occurs? A particular base on a codon will not be correct, such as ACG will be ACT.How does this affect the mRNA? When the mRNA is transcribed it will carry that mutation, Such as ACT will be UGA instead of UGC.How can this affect translation? Depending that the mutation does not cause the wrong amino acid to be paired, it may cause no problem at all. If it does cause the wrong amino acid pair then the protein can suffer from partial function to no function at all.How does this affect the structure and shape of the resulting protein? The wrong amino acid sequence affects the shape and structure and hence the function of the protein.

IBi d. ii Bio.3.2.2 Predict offspring ratios based on a variety of inheritance patterns (including dominance, codominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, and sex-linked traits).Explain each of Mendel’s Laws and explain the experiments he used to determine these laws.1) Law of segregation of characters (alleles) In most sexually reproducing organisms each adult has two copies of each gene, one from each parent. These genes are segregated from each other when gametes are formed. 2) Law of independent assortment (of alleles) Genes that segregate independently from each other and do not influence each other’s inheritance. So heterozygous organisms have a pattern of 1: 2: 1 or 9: 3: 3: 1.How does meiosis lead to segregation and independent assortment?

What were the goals of the human genome project? Begun in 1990, it was a collaborate effort among scientists to sequence the human genome. How will the human genome project be useful in finding whether individuals may carry genes for genetic conditions? This could help identify genetic disorders in couples or devise methods of gene therapy.381051181000How will the human genome project be useful in developing gene therapies? In gene therapy, the absent or faulty gene is replaced by a normal, working gene. To the left is an electrophoresis gel, showing evidence from a rape case.Could the defendant be the rapist? (Y/N) NO The Bands do not match to the defendant.Which fragments of DNA are the longest? Explain. The longest bands are the largest base pairs digested by the restriction enzymes. They are bigger so they move more slowly across the gel. Hence, they are found towards the bottom of the gel. What other ways can DNA fingerprinting be useful? DNA fingerprinting can be used to determine disease, other crimes, or in paternity cases. Since DNA has a (-) charge, which way will it go in a gel? Towards the positive end. Which type of fragments move the fastest? Smallest Which move the slowest? BiggestWhat is a restriction enzyme? This is an enzyme used in DNA fingerprinting that cuts DNA at certain places along the DNA strand. These fragments can be measured as a function of their slow or fast movement across an electrophoretic gel. 206.

Scientists can harvest the insulin protein from the bacteria to use in human patients who need human insulin like diabetes patients.What are some other applications of this type of technology? Bacteria will make any type of protein inserted into their genome, so scientists can make any type of protein that is needed. (Hemoglobin, etc)This process can be used to make GMO’s –genetically modified organisms. What are some of the ethical issues surrounding this technology? We do not know the long term effects of using this type of technology. Long term studies are not yet available. 211.

What are some of the potential benefits that could come from the growing of stem cells in a laboratory? Scientists can grow into any new cell type that has been damaged or mutated in certain individuals. People may regain brain or neural function in cells that no longer reproduce at maturity which would help in spinal cord injuries or Alzheimer’s patients.What are some of the ethical issues surrounding the collection and use of stem cells? Some stems cells are harvested from discarded or aborted embryos. But now, some stem cells can be taken from teeth or other sources.Constructed Response 3.3.3: Should there be laws to regulate stem cell research? Justify your answer. Bio.3.4 Explain the theory of evolution by natural selection as a mechanism for how species change over time.Bio.3.4.1 Explain how fossil, biochemical, and anatomical evidence support the theory of evolution. In the following chart, describe the role of each of the following in developing the current theory of evolution.Discussion of importance to evolutionary theoryUnderstanding of geology(Changes in the earth)That the earth has been constantly changing, why not living things?Malthus’ ideas about populationGrowthHumans (perhaps like other organisms) are limited by environmental pressures (disease, resources, space, etc)Anatomical comparisonsAnimals that share common characteristics in bone structure may have had some form of common ancestry.Patterns in fossil evidenceAncient organisms adapted and responded to their environment by inheritable characteristics depending on the type of environment.Lamarck’s ideas about inheritanceOf acquired characteristicsHe believed that animals inherited characteristics based upon their use and disuse of traits which is not true, but raised the issue of how they were they passed on?Biochemical comparisons (DNA and proteins)By directly comparing DNA and proteins, scientists can determine when animals diverged from one another as well as compare their evolutionary relationships.The role of variationsAnimals seemed to adapt to their particular environments. Why?The role of sexual reproductionAnimals that sexually reproduced had more success (fitness) in a changing environment. Why was this?The role of geographic isolationWhen animals are separated geographically, major adaptations occurred. Why?The importance of the environmentA constant theme in whether or not animals survived or went extinct was their natural environment. How did this shape how animals survived then and today?What is a vestigial structure? Name a few in humans. A structure that is no longer useful to an organism, but may have been used by ancestors. Vestigial structures in humans include the coccyx (tail bone), ear muscles, appendix, and goose bumps from getting scared.What are some of the ideas on the origins of life? (A.k.a. where and when did it form?) Life likely formed in the Earth’s oceans where it was constant and safe from the toxic, oxygen deprived atmosphere and harsh land conditions. As cyanobacteria produced oxygen and the climate changed that the oceans dried up (not totally!), animals and plants began to move the land environment and develop complexity from simple carbon molecules to amino acids, protocells and cells.Discuss the steps in Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection.Populations of organisms have many genetic variations. Where do these come from? Inherited genes seen fit by those best suited to the environment who could find food and a mate to pass those on to their anisms could reproduce exponentially but they don’t. Why not? What are they restricted by? No, they are restricted by food availability, space and mate selections. The best suited to the environment will survive & reproduce.What are adaptations? Any inherited characteristic that increases an organism’s chance of survival.Some adaptations have better survival value in certain environments. What does this mean? Some adaptations (based upon genotypic mutations) are not favorable for that particular environment. They are not selected for and that particular organism dies and does not pass on that particular adaptation to their offspring.What does it mean to be “fit” to an environment? The ability of an individual to survive and reproduce in their particular environment.The next population will have a high frequency of the genes that have been selected for. Why will the frequency of selected genes increase? Those who are fit will be the only ones to survive and reproduce passing on those genes. What is Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection? What is Artificial Selection? In natural selection, only the fittest will survive to produce offspring for the next generation (survival of the fittest.) In artificial selection, humans select organisms for desired traits and ensure breeding (plus survival) so those traits is present in their offspring. Such as particular dog breeds that could never survive in the natural environment.When this process continues over millions of years, it can lead to speciation. What is speciation? When members of a species evolve they split and become reproductively isolated from one another. This creates two new species. Compare and contrast convergent and divergent evolution. Convergent evolution is when two generally unrelated species in different areas adopt similar adaptations based upon a common environment. Divergent evolution is when animals diverge from each other then they geographically adopt different areas and must take on different characteristics as adaptations in order to survive, becoming more different than one another.What is adaptive radiation? How did the finches of the Galapagos adapt to their environment? Adaptive radiation is a type of divergent evolution where groups based upon new environments adapt differently creating new species. Darwin’s finches adapted according to their food source and was reflected in their type of beak.Most hypotheses state that prokaryotic anaerobes probably evolved first. Why? Because there was no oxygen in the early Earth’s atmosphere.The hypotheses then suggest that prokaryotic autotrophs probably evolved? Why? They were the ones (i.e. cyanobacteria) that produced the oxygen that is found in our atmosphere today.What gas would enter the atmosphere as a result of these autotrophs appearing. OXYGEN!Then prokaryotic aerobic heterotrophs could evolve. What can these cells do that others before them cannot? Synthesize organic materials into energy. Before then there was only the SUN to use energy. What is the hypothesis explaining how eukaryotic cells evolved? Endosymbiont theory (Lynn Margulis)-679458890000Describe and explain adaptations affecting survival and reproductive success (structural adaptations in plants and animals, disease-causing viruses and microorganisms, co-evolution)Label the following parts on the flower and give their functions:Stigma – Female part of the flower – captures pollenStyle – Female part of the flower – transmits pollen to ovaryPetal – Nonsexual part of the flower – attracts pollinatorsSepal – Nonsexual part of the flower – protects petalsAnther – Male part of the flower – attaches pollen granulesFilament – Male part of the flower – stalk that supports pollenOvary- Contains OVULE WHICH CONTAINS Egg Cells-18478524701500What is meant by coevolution? Where two different species evolve in tandem through mutualistic goals with one another. (A.k.a. if made for one another.) Give an example of a flowering plant and a pollinator and then describe how coevolution works. (How does it ensure the survival of a species?) The orchid that looks like a female bee to lure the males to try to have sex with it in order to pollinate.Assessment 3.4.1: Species A and B share similarities in DNA sequences. What would this suggest about their evolutionary relationship? a. Species A developed before species B. b. Species A and B share a recent common ancestor. c. Species A and B are unrelated. d. Species B developed before Species A. Bio.3.4.2 Explain how natural selection influences the changes in species over time. Assessment 3.4.2: During the Industrial Revolution, there were two variations of English Peppered Moths, those with light color and those with dark color. The soot from the factories covered the trees. Data was collected to measure the percentage of each type of moth in the area. It was noted that the percentage of dark-colored moths increased over time, while the percentage of light-colored moths decreased. What is the likely explanation for this change? The presence of a mutation changed the color of the English PepperedMoths.The presence of the dark-colored variation increased the likelihood for survival of the English PepperedMoths. The presence of the light-colored variation increased the likelihood for survival of the English Peppered Moths. The presence of an acquired trait changed the color of the English PepperedMoths. Bio.3.4.3 Explain how various disease agents (bacteria, viruses, chemicals) can influence natural selection. Describe how a population of bacteria can become resistant to an antibiotic (or an insect to a pesticide). How is this a direct way to observe evolution? Bacteria that have natural mutations to survive a particular insect or pesticide have new space and resources to survive and reproduce creating a new generation resistant to that particular obstacle. What happens when pesticides and antibiotics are used and how does it relate to evolution? When one particular antibiotic is used frequently, populations evolve a natural immunity to it. This is the exact theory of Darwin’s survival of the fittest. What is the relationship between disease and mutations in the agents that cause disease? Mutations lead resistance to drugs. Explain the relationship between sickle cell anemia and malaria. In a heterozygous form the sickle cell gene provides resistance to malariaExplain the relationship between lung and mouth cancer and tobacco use. The tobacco is a carcinogen that can lead to uncontrolled cell growthExplain the relationship between PKU and diet. A person with PKU must be on a low phenylalanine diet to make up for the lack of enzyme production that breaks down phenylalanine. THIS IS AN INHERITED GENETIC DISEASE. Constructed Response 3.4.3: Why are incidences of sickle cell anemia more common in areas known for high occurrence of malaria? Assessment 3.4.3: A researcher sprays a new pesticide on thousands of insects of the same species that live in a large field. A few of the insects survive. What can be concluded by the researcher? a. The species of insects will likely become resistant to the pesticide. b. The ideal interval between the first and second applications of the pesticide should be increased. c. The pesticide has no effect on the species. d. The concentration of the pesticide was too weak. Bio.3.5 Analyze how classification systems are developed upon speciation.Bio.3.5.1 Explain the historical development and changing nature of classification systems.In the times of Linnaeus, he used ANATOMY to classify organisms called Binomial Nomenclature. In the time of technology, now we mostly use DNA technology, molecular clocks AND ANATOMY and cladistics to classify organisms.Why is the current classification system continually undergoing change? Due to new DNA evidence and amino acid similarities from living and extinct organisms. Study behavior These are now used to disclose common ancestry.What is the current seven-level classification system? (KPCOFGS) Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus & Species (What is binomial nomenclature? A two-name naming system based in Latin to identify a single organism.

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions in cells by lowering the activation energy needed to begin the reaction. Explain the importance of shape to enzyme function. “Work like locks and keys.”Explain what determines the shape of an enzyme. It depends on the sequence of amino acids.Explain why enzymes are specific. (That is, one enzyme per type of reaction.) Since they work like locks and keys only one enzyme can catalyze one type of substrate(s).Explain why enzymes can be reused over and over again. Since enzymes are never used up by the reaction, they go out and search for the same type of substrate(s) to catalyze again.How do extreme pH and temperature extremes affect enzymes? (What is denature?) Extreme temperature and/or pH can cause enzymes to denature and no longer function. Denature means that an enzyme literally falls apart (breaks down their bonds) and they cannot be put back together again unless made anew by a ribosome and a piece of mRNA specific for that particular enzyme.
