| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| ev. history of a species/group of species | phylogeny |
| The organization of phylogeny | systematics |
| use of pattern traits among living organisms to make phylogenies | cladistics |
| clade system | DKPCOFGS |
| an ancestral species and all of its descendants | clade |
| clades are diagnosed by | shared derived homologies |
| trait shared by common descent | homology |
| similar traits found in organisms but that have NO relation | analogy |
| similar to a clade but not in the clade | outgroup |
| 3 domains | eukarya, archaea, bacteria |
| domain of animals, fungi, plants | eukarya |
| domains that contain prokaryotes | archaea and bacteria |
| 5 kingdoms | monera protista, fungi, plantae, animalia |
| kingdom of prokaryotes | monera |

| spherical prokaryote shape | cocci |
| rod shaped prokaryote shape | bacilli |
| some cell walls are made of | peptidoglycan |
| test to determine if peptidoglycan in cell walls | gram stain |
| if gram stain positive it turns | pink |
| 2 ways prokaryotes maintain position | capsule and fimbriae |
| sticky coat | capsule |
| attachment pilli | fimbriae |
| 2 ways prokaryotes move around | flagella and taxis |
| prokaryotes lack | membrane bound organelles and nucleus |
| prokaryotes have large population because | very short generation time |
| prokaryotes large population= | large mutations |
| 3 types of prokaryote recombination | transformation, transduction, conjugation |
