AP Biology Study Guide — Online Activities Chapter 16 The Molecular Basis of Inheritance First read through the chapter while looking for references to figures. When you come to them stop reading for a second and study what each figure has to say and show‚ then continue reading. I can’t stress how important it is to study these figures as you read the text.

Chapter 16 Notes: The Molecular Basis of Inheritance Overview: Life’s Operating Instructions In 1953‚ James Watson and Francis Crick introduced an elegant double-helical model for the structure of DNA. DNA‚ the substance of inheritance‚ is the most celebrated molecule of our time. Hereditary information is encoded in DNA and reproduced in all cells of the body. This DNA program directs the development of biochemical‚ anatomical‚ physiological‚ and (to some extent) behavioral traits Early in

AP Biology Name: Chapter 51 Guided Reading 1. How do behavioral ecologists define behavior? Behavioral ecologists define behavior as everything an animal does and how it does it 2. What is the focus of: a. Proximate questions of behavior? Focuses on the environmental stimuli‚ if any‚ that trigger a particular behavioral act‚ as well as the genetic‚ physiological‚ and anatomical mechanisms underlying it. b. Ultimate questions of behavior? Focuses on the evolutionary significance

Chapter 1- 2 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION: THEMES IN THE STUDY OF LIFE OBJECTIVES Exploring Life on Its Many Levels 1. Briefly describe the unifying themes that characterize the biological sciences. 1. The cell an organism’s basic unit of structure and function 2. Heritable information: the inheritance of biological information in the form of DNA which is encoded in the nucleotide sequence of DNA. 3. Emergent properties: emerge as a result of interaction among components at the
