Q

Bhor effect, in small and large mammals

Q

fish from freshwater to salty

A
  • Lose water and gain salt
  • hyposmotic regulators
  • maintain bodyfluids at a lower concentration than environment
  • for water loss, fish drinks water absorbed in intestines to blood and secreted to the gills

Q

exchange process in renal nephrons

A
  • glomerular filtration: is the bulk flow of protein free plasma
  • Reabsorption: from the lumen of the renal tubules to the interstitial fluid

water balance

hypervolemia

A

high blood volume by positive water valance

31

water balance

hypovolemia

A

low blood volume by negative water valance

32
Q

osmosis

A

diffusion of water over a concentration gradient fo dissolved solutes

33
Q

Darwin’s 5 theories

A
  • perpeutal change: living world is in constant change
  • common descent: all forms of life same ancestor
  • multiplication of species: new species by slitting and transforming old ones
  • gradualism: large differences in anatomical traits are accumulation of small incremental changes over very long periods of time
  • natural selection: variation among organisms
34
Q

phylogeny

A

life’s history depcited in a branching tree

35
Q

homology

A

similar structure, different functions. limb.

36
Q

analogy

A

different structure similar function

37
Q

ontogeny

A

development of an orgamism through its entire life

38
Q

evoluability

A

capacity of a system to adaptative evolution

39
Q

allopatric population

A

species that occupy separate geographic areas that would interbreed if it weren’t because of geographic barriers

40
Q

hybridization

A

occurrance of mating between divergent populations

41
Q

sympatric

A

same land

42
Q

parapatric

A

speciation (between allopatric and symaptric): 2 species with geographic allopatric ranges but make contact along borderline that neither species successfully crosses

43
Q

adaptative radiation

A

evolution of several ecologically diverse species from a common ancestral species

44
Q

population gradualism

A

new trait become established in pouplation by increasing their frequency initially from a small fraction to mahority

45
Q

phenotypic gradualism

A

new traits are produced in a small incremental steps accumulating over undered to thousands of generations(not all are incremental steps, some appear in single mutation)

46
Q

phyletic gradualism

A

slowly steadily gradually to adapt to new challenges

47
Q

punctuated equilibrium

A

once species appears, the population will become stable

48
Q

taxonomy

A

branch of sciences concerned with classification, especially of organisms

49
Q

phylogeny

A

deals with phylogenesis (evolutionary development of diversification of a species or group of organisms)

50
Q

homology

A

similar relation, relative position

51
Q

homoplasy

A

character shared by a set of species but not present in their common ancestor

52
Q

clade

A

fundamental unit of phylogenetic grouping of species

53
Q

synapomorphy

A

derived character shared uniquely by all members of a clade

54
Q

plesiomoprhic

A

homologous within a particular group of organisms, but is not unique to members of that group

55
Q

symplesiomorphic

A

plesiomorphy shared by two or more taxa. teeth.

56
Q

pseudoplesiomprhy

A

any trait that can neither be identified as a plesiomorphy nor as apomorphy

Q

darwins thory of evolution 5

A
  • perpetual change: living world is in constant change
  • common decent: all forms of life have some ancestor
  • speciation: multipliction of species, new species by splitting and transforming old ones
  • gradualism: large differences in anatomical traits are accumulation of small incremental changes over very long periods of time
  • natural selection: variation amoung organisms, variation is heritable, organisms with different variant forms are epxected to leave different number of offspring to future generations.
