Share a common ancestor Example: forelimbs of humans‚ bats‚ and moles Analogous structures: Features that serve related functions‚ but do not show common ancestry. Example: wings of bats and insects Adaptive Radiation: Divergent and Convergent evolution

1. External morphology of exopterygota: The Exopterygota are all hemimetabolous insects that have wings which develop externally and do not undergo a significant metamorphosis via a pupal stage. Apart from being wingless and smaller‚ the nymphs (immature stages) of these species are generally quite similar in appearance to the adults. Endopterygota Holometabolous insects undergo significant morphological changes during their development. The larvae (mostly grub-like)

Lab#3 Mendelian Inheritance in Drosophila Lab Report 1 In this experiment we are investigating the strength of the ratios discovered by Gregor Mendel in both the monohybrid and dihybrid cross. The ability to test these ratios stems from the use of Mendel’s law of segregation which states that during meiosis allele pairs will separate in gametes so one of each allele is present in a gamete. (Garey‚ et al‚pg 8-13) These single alleles are then combined with the other parental gamete forming

anti-apartheid involvements. In fact‚ the ANC movements was still underway during the treason trial.- By 1961‚ the ANC and PAC‚ under Mandela’s direction‚ setup military wings in retaliation to the South African police opened fire on demonstrators‚ killing 180 black Africans and injuring 69. The South African government banned these wings under the Unlawful Organizations Act

A phylogenetic tree allows an individual to see how closely related an organism is to another organism. It also shows homoplasy‚ vestigial structures‚ extinction‚ and the change of an organism over time. While classifying organisms in Exercise Part 1‚ organisms 13‚ 14‚ 28 1‚ 16 and 24 were places in Order 1 of the Phylum Caminalcula. However through the fossil reconstruction‚ the construction of a phylogenetic tree‚ in Exercise 2 Part 4‚ it appeared that organisms 12‚ 2‚ 22‚ 3‚ 4‚ and 9 are closer

that ancestor. The second piece of evidence of why i believe in the theory of evolution is vestigial structures. Vestigial structures are structures that serve no purpose. Most organisms have organs that serve no useful function at all. Like humans have a tailbone at the end of their spine and snakes have tiny pelvic bones and limb structures. They serve no purpose at all. Organisms that have vestigial structures most likely have a common ancestor to those whom that structures is still in use

features have a function vestigial structures do not have a purpose organisms have structures or organs that seem to serve no useful function. For example‚ humans have a tailbone at the end of the spine that is of no apparent use. Some cave-dwelling salamanders have eyes even though members of the species are completely blind. Vestigial organs are often useful in other species. Vestigial structures can be viewed as evidence for evolution because organisms having vestigial structures probably share

UNIT 1 – LESSON 2 NOTES Natural Selection and Evidence for Evolution: The mechanism for evolution is called Natural Selection to distinguish it from Artificial Selection. Evolution occurs at the population level because genetics don’t change. The frequencies of different genetic types (genotypes) within a population do change over time & can create new species. There is genetic variation in all populations; some individuals are successful at surviving and finding resources & produce
