CELLS All living things are made of cells‚ and cells are the smallest units that can be alive. Life on Earth is classified into five kingdoms‚ and they each have their own characteristic kind of cell. However the biggest division is between the cells of the prokaryote kingdom (the bacteria) and those of the other four kingdoms (animals‚ plants‚ fungi and protoctista)‚ which are all eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells‚ and do not have a nucleus. Prokaryote

Jordan Wong Schiefer Acc Bio Block 6 11/15/12 Unit 4 Biochemistry relates to all things living because biochemistry makes up everything living. The atoms that make up the cells within our body are a part of biochemistry. There is carbon in every living thing and carbon based molecules are a part of biochemistry. Unit 4 describes the biochemistry in all living things. It explains the atomic structure and ions‚ properties of water and pH‚ organic molecules‚ chemical reactions and enzymes.

As humans‚ we are the most dominant species in the world. We have the ability to walk upright‚ grasping thumbs‚ and large brains. This helps us to live and be successful on earth. But‚ these advantages we have didn’t happen overnight‚ they occurred during the hominine evolution. The skull‚ neck‚ spiral column‚ hip bones‚ and leg bones of the early hominine species changed shape in ways that later enabled species to walk upright. The evolution of dipedal‚ or two-footed‚ locomotion was very important

Leaf anatomy‚ food for plants and animals‚ plant functions‚ and plant and animal cells are all subjects that were highly mentioned throughout the first quarter. The theme of Energy Transfer is prominent in all of these topics. The Interdependence in Nature is also a theme that comes up especially in plant functions‚ plant and animal cells‚ and leaf anatomy. Although there were many different sub-themes after many experiments‚ research‚ and discussion in class‚ I find that the two main themes that

Introduction Good Morning Everyone. My name is and this is ‚ and . We will be presenting to you on how Light affects gene expression with focus on Maize leaves. This is an unrelated but neat photo of gem corn which is produced as a result of selective breeding. Anyways‚ most plants require light in order to grow and conduct photosynthesis. Plants that have been previously grown in the dark are incapable of photosynthesis since they lack chlorophyll and many polypeptides needed for light harvesting

QUESTIONS 1. According to the Hardy-Weinberg theorem‚ p + q 1 and p2 + 2pq + q2 1. What does each of these formulas mean‚ and how are the formulas derived? p + q 1: If you add all the dominant alleles for a gene to all the recessive alleles for the gene‚ you get all of the alleles for that gene‚ or 100% of the alleles for the gene. (Note: This assumes the gene has only two alleles.) p2 + 2pq + q2 1: If you combine all the individuals that are homozygous dominant for a gene with all
