Genomic Techniques in Ecological Genomics Ecological genomics is “an interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand the genetic and physiological basis of species interactions for evolutionary inferences” (Renn‚ Siemens 2010). Here I will focus on the genomic techniques that can be used to answer ecological genomic questions. An overarching goal in the field of ecological genomics is to find the genes that matter in species interactions‚ and then to study the ecological consequences

The myriads of flowers that we enjoy gazing at‚ the scents and the perfumes that we swoon over‚ the rich colours that attract us‚ are all there as an aid to sexual reproduction. Flowers do not exist only

2012-2013 A Research Paper Presented to Anneke Padolina‚ Ph.D Department of Biology Ateneo de Manila University Submitted by: Medina‚ Kryzka August 2012 I. Introduction The life cycle of plants is characterized by the change in ploidy of generations; with diploid generations giving rise to haploid generations and vice versa. The diploid generation‚ commonly called the sporophyte‚ produces spores via meiosis. Through mitosis these haploid cells develop into a multicellular gametophyte

Evolution as a theory * Theory- in science‚ a well substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world Evolution- the accumulation of inherited genetic changes within populations over generations * Does not refer to changes that occur in an individual within its lifetime * Not limited to speciation that may only occur over long periods of time * Can occur over a few generations‚ and is most commonly expressed as an adaptation to a changing environment or the change in allele

Structure and Roles of Nucleic Acids 1.1 illustrate the structure of RNA and DNA using simple labelled diagrams; The genetic substance found in all organisms called DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a kind of nucleic acid. Nucleic acids consist of two long polymers of simpler units‚ called nucleotides; that are composed of three (3) main units as shown below: 1) A pentose sugar (deoxyribose

Campbell’s Biology‚ 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 31 Fungi Though fungal divisions have traditionally been based on modes of sexual reproduction‚ molecular considerations are becoming more important. Consequently‚ no emphasis has been placed on the vagaries of sexual and asexual reproduction among various fungi in this Test Bank. Instead‚ new questions assess students’ abilities to think logically about fungal morphology‚ genetics‚ and ecology. Two new sets of scenario questions deal with the biology

Entamoeba histolytica Entamoeba histolytica I. Morphology Among the Entamoeba family‚ E. histolytica is the most invasive. This eukaryotic organism has some atypical characteristics such as: lack of organelles‚ no endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. The cyst is usually spherical with the size that ranges from 10-20μm. In a mature cyst there are four nucleuses while in an immature cyst there are 1-2 which are occasionally seen. Its karyosomal chromatin is small‚ discrete
