QuestionAnswer
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
3 shapes of prokaryotes cocci, bacilli, spiral
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
picking up DNA from environment transformation
viruses carry that carry and insert bacterial DNA transduction
one way transfer of DNA conjugation
in conjugation, donor and receiver connect by sex pilus
in conjugation what is passed to the receiver cell? f plasmids
2 ways to obtain energy[not c] phototrophs vs chemotrophs
phototrophs vs chemotrophs light vs chemical bonds
2 ways to obtain energy [c] autotrophs vs heterotrophs
autotrops vs heterotrophs inorganic c vs organic c
3 oxygen levels obligate aerobes, obligate anaeorobes, facultative anaerobes
organism needs O2 obligate aerobes
organism is poisoned by O2 obligate anaerobes
organism doesnt need O2 but not poisoned facultative anaerobes
3 nutrient cycling decomposers, photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation
nitrogen fixation releases C & N
photosnythesis c->O2
nitrogen fixation N2->NH3
minimum, optimum, and maximum temps at which organisms can grow cardinal temperature
low temperature organism psychrophile
low temperature organisms have enzymes that function optimally in cold
mid range temperature organisms mesophile
mid range temperature organisms found in tropical and temperate altitudes
high temperature organisms thermophile
very high temperature organisms hyperthermophile
very high temp= 80*c and above
low ph= <6 acidophiles
mid ph= 6-8 neutrophiles
high ph=alkaliphiles >9
pH in a cell must stay relatively neutral
using plants, fungi, and prokaryotes to detoxify area bioremediation
use organisms to add compounds to ecosystem biological augmentation
protists are mostly _______ _______ single celled eukaryotes
3 protist metabolisms autotrophs heterotrophs and mixotrophs
photosynthetic protist metabolism autotrophs
protists that feed on organisms heterotrophs
in eukaryotes, mitochondria chloroplasts and plastids acquired by endosymbiosis
6 protist lineages excavata, alveolates, stramenophiles, rhizarians, archaeplastida, unikots
protist lineage with flagellated parasites excavata
2 groups of excavatas diplomonads/parabasalids & euglenozoans
2 kinds of euglenozoans trypanosoma and euglena
protist lineage with alveoli beneath membrane alveolates
3 groups of alveolates ciliates apicocomplexans and dinoflagellates
example of ciliates paramecium
example of apicocomplexans plasmodium
example of dinoflagellates crimson tide
protist lineage with hairy flagella stramenophiles
4 groups of stramenophiles diatoms, golden algae, brown algae, oomycetes
protist lineage of amoeboia pseudopodia rhizarians
3 groups of rhizarians foraminiferans, radiolarians, and chlorarachniophytes
foraminiferans have a shell of calcium carbonate
radiolarians have a shell of silica
protist lineage of plants and algae archaeplastida
protist lineage of fungi and animals unikots
2 groups of unikots amoebozoans and opishokonts
unikot group of plants and animals opisthokonts
having asexual and sexual phases alternation of generations
unikot group of slime molds amoebozoans
single cells for feeding slime molds
super cell with many nuclei plasmodial slime mold
plasmodial slime molds move by pseudopodia
slime mold with cells seperated by a membrane cellular slime mold
having one set of chromosomes haploid
cellular slime molds are diploiod/haploid halpoid
having two sets of chromosomes diploid
which organism is best able to utilize the reactants (CO2+4H2S) converting them to sugar molecules? chemosynthetic bacteria
what metabolism does an animal who can utilize the reactants (CO2+4H2S) converting them to sugar molecules chemosynthetic
an organism that utilizes the reactants (CO2+4H2S) converting them to sugar molecules has what type of respiratory? aerobic
some organisms lack mouths and a digestive tract but they carry what key component in their tissues that is used to transfer nutrients to their symbiotic partner? hemoglobin
What benefit does the bacterial symbiotic obtain from the relationship with its tubeworm or clam partner? protection from predators
a taxon that includes an ancestor and all of its descendents is monophyletic
first taxa on earth bacteria
total carbon in plants > or < than in animal >
how many years of evolution 4.5 billion
