Q

naming organisms

A

names in different languages, lead to no information, so is now names like first words=genus, second word=specie. UNDERLINE!

advantages of phylogenetic classification

A

continous trees, whereas classification needs discrete.
classification can be misleading, different group with rankse

16
Q

evidence of evolution

A

Palaeontology
comparative anatomy/chemistry

17
Q

Palaeontology

A

fossils formed over long times, so sediment is desposisted, making sequence of youngest to oldest. NOT COMPLETE

18
Q

comparative anatomy

A

homologus structure, structure different, but same things usage, like pentadactyl limb. EVIDENCE of divergent evolution

19
Q

divergent evolution

A

different species have evolved, with different adaptive features.

20
Q

comparative biochemistry

A

study in similar and difference in proteins and other molecules.
slight changes=help links for evolution.
neutral evolution=change dosent affect function.
molecule sequences are compared, and no of differences are plotted against rate, so can estimate with share ancestor.

21
Q

interspecific variation

A

number of different species

22
Q

causes of variation

A

genetically
environmentally

23
Q

genetically changes?

A

allele, genes having different alleles, so different effects.
mutations leading to changes in DNA sequences

24
Q

adapations

A

anatominal, behavioral, physological

25
Q

anatominal

A

body covering, camoflauge, teeth, mimicary

26
Q

behavioral

A

act dead.
courtship
seasonal

27
Q

physological

A

production of poison/antibotics.

28
Q

analogus structures

A

adapted to perform same structure but different alleles

29
Q

covelgent evolution

A

unrelated species begin to have similar traits, evolve to adapt to similar environments.

30
Q

natural selection

A

1)organisms show variation due to genetic (alleles, mutation).
2)organisms adapted to selection pressure, so more survival, more reproduction, and survival of the fittest.
3)pass to offspring
4)reperated, more gene pool
