Observance of Artificial Selection: Technical Study of Wisconsin Fast Plants 5th and 6th period AP Biology Due: 12/16/13 Abstract This experiment was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism ’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in

What are the names of the species used in this experiment? Which of these species was the most tolerant of increased acidity in the aquarium? Which species was the least tolerant? The names of the species used in the experiment were clam‚ dragonfly‚ and side swimmer. The specie that was the most tolerant was the dragonfly and the least tolerant was the clam. Describe how acid precipitation affects ecosystems. Acid precipitation affects the ecosystem‚ for example‚ lowering ph in water when it

This organelle contains enzymes for intracellular hydrolysis of food molecules. Lysosom 4. This organelle takes in food molecules and oxygen and can transfer the food energy to ATP batteries‚ which will eventually collision energy for chemical reactions. Products of these events are carbon dioxide and water. Mitocondria 5. These organelles

the Environment Week 1 Biomes and Diversity. As you have learned in the readings‚ extinction is a natural selection process. You have also read that humans are often responsible for accelerating this process. Using at least two scholarly sources‚ address whether or not we as humans should be concerned with the extinction rate. Additionally‚ discuss whether or not humans strive to preserve representative samples of all biomes on the planet Introduction to Science. Read Lab 1: Introduction

Ksenia Semina Evolution Lab ARR 3 Blast Lab Analysis: Gene 1: The 4 organisms that were looked at in the Gene 1 are bird‚ vertebrate‚ rodent and bony fish. From the Blast result the most similar gene sequence to the gene of the gene of interest is Gallus gallus collaged which is also a bird. They are the most similar because the Gallus has the highest max score out of all other genes and 100% for the ident and there is no difference in the e-value. The species is located at the bird’s branch

population numbers would have resulted in specific genetic traits being passed down to the subsequent generations. The lack of any other gene pools to intermix with would have allowed for specific traits to pass down within a community. c. In week 2 we discussed that individuals can have no more than two different alleles for each trait. In population genetics we can operate with multiple alleles for each trait. How is it possible? Due to the increase of humans moving and evolving areas‚

Include a digital image of the blood cells present in the permanent dry. Red Blood cells carry hemoglobin inside of them which helps carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. Hemoglobin is what gives blood cells the red pigmentation. The amount of blood cells present in the blood give it
