Q

3 things that must occur for Natural Selection

A
  1. Individual variation: trait must vary between individual
  2. Variation from the first individual results in some individuals being better able to survive and reproduce
  3. Trait variations are inherited: favorable traits are passed to offspring, making them better able to survive

Q

What are shared derived traits useful for?

A

hypothesizing phylogentic relationships

20
Q

How to find the fields of view with constants

A

If given field of view at a specific magnification,
C= (field of view) x (magnification)

Next find the field of view at another magnification:
Field of view= C divided by magnification

Outer region parts: Radial Canals, Tentacles (small and hair like), Ring Canal

29
Q

Identify the Cnidaria Hydroza

A

The Cnidaria Hydroza has a genus named Obelia.
The Obelia has Feeding Polyps(has tentacles on them) and a Reproductive Polyp (fat, sausage looking thing with red stuff in it)

30
Q

What species are in the Cnidaria Anthozoa ?

A

sea anemone and coral

31
Q

Digestive system: none or cavity (wut?)
Skeleton: hydrostatic

32

A

Coelom condition: present
Symmetry: bilateral
Tissue layers: 3 (endo, meso, ecto)
