| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Charles Darwin | first to figure out how evolution works and published a book called The Origin of Species. |
| Wallace | published a book called "The Malay Archipelago" |
| Lyell | published a book called "Principles of Geology." |
| What evidence for evolution came before Darwin? | Fossils |
| H.M.S Beagle | the ship Darwin sailed on |
| Galapagos Islands | islands where evidence for evolution is most prominent. Primary labratory for studying evolution. Evidence for Darwin's theory of natural selection. The environment and it's species adapt through adaptive radiation. |
| Natural Selection | Determines wether a species will have a greater chance of curvival than any other species. |
| homologous structures | Same origin, different functions |
| analogous structures | different origins. same function |
| The two parts of evolution | percent survival and number of offspring. |
| Adaptive Radiation | rapid evolutionary diversification of an ancestral species into a variety of species. |
| Evolution | change in a species' alleles |
| Genetic drift | genes change at random and nothing causes it |
| Three types of natural selection | Directional selection, disruptive selection, stabilizing selection. |
| Directional selection | Pressure is pushing in one direction, one extreme favored |
| Disruptive selection | Two extremes favored, middle disfavored |
| Stabilizing selection | Middle is favored, extremes disfavored |
| Does an natural selection guarantee survival? | No, |
| Populations evolve not individuals | True |
| Bynomial system of nomenclature. | 2 name system of naming things for classification |
| Carl Linnaeus | Botanist that lived in Sweden and published a book called Systema Naturae. He is currently buried in Domkyrke, |
| Systema Naturae | A book that became the starting point for naming and classification |
| Herbarium | Collection of pressed plants |
| One common name works for multiple scientific names. | True |
| King Peter Created Ostrages From Great Supplies. | Kingdom, Phylum, Class, order, family, genus, species |
| idae | animal family |
| inae | animal subfamily |
| aceae | plant family |
| Genus | one word, italics, capital letter |
| Species | Two words: one capital, one lowercase |
| Order | Everything else |
| Family | One word with either idae, inae, or aceae on the end. |
| Eukaryotes | Plabt and animal kingdoms. They are larger and multicellular |
| Prokaryotes | Small, single celled bacteria |
| Pathogen | a disease causing organism such as bacteria, viruses, or protists. |
| All Bacteria are Pathogens | False |
| All Pathogens are Bacteria | False |
| Freezing kills bacteria | false, only slows bacterial growth |
| Three Catagories of Bacteria | Coccus, Bacillus, Spirilla |
| Coccus(cocci) | Spherical O |
| Bacillus(bacilli) | Rod shaped 0 |
| Spirilla | Spiraled S |
| Thermophiles | heat loving creatures |
| You cant kill all bacteria by boiling water | true |
| Bacteria Reproduction | Bacteria multiply by dividing themselves asexually. |
| Penicillium | A genus of mold that grows on bread |
| Staphyloccus | A genus of bacteria |
| How does yeast reproduce? | by budding |
| Mycelium | the main body of the fungus with underhround roots like spaggheti fibers |
| Hypha | Single thread of Mycelium |
| Hyphae | Plural thread of Mycelium |
| Fairy Ring | occurs when the Mycellium spreads out and the mushrooms grow in a perfect circle |
| Ergots | Fungal disease of wheats |
| Fungi are multicellular | true |
| Yest is single celled and buds | true |
| What plants are non-vascular and have spores? | Mosses and liverworts |
| What plants are vascular and have spores? | Ferns and club mosses |
| What plans are vascular and have seeds? | Gymnosperms and angiosperms |
| Evolutioon of plants | Went from non-vascular to vascular and from having spored to having seeds for reproduction. |
| Mosses can transport water? | False |
| Moss reproduction | There must be moisture and male and female gammetes release. |
| Three kinds of fossil fuels | Liquids(oil), solids(Coal), and gasses(natural gas) |
| Conifers | cone bearing |
| Chlorophyll | makes plants green |
| Deciduous | Sheds leaves in the fall |
| Timberline | the height where it is too cold for trees to grow |
| Perfect flower | a complete flower with male and female parts |
| Plant Reproduction | draw insects or birds with nector, fragrance, and color. Sometimes the wind is used to help spread seeds. |
| Stamen | male part of a flower consisting of the anther and filament |
| Carpel(pistil) | Female part of a flower consisting of the stigma, ovary, and style |
| Corolla | All petals of a flower |
| Two Types of leaves | simple and compound |
| Simple leaf | A plant leaf with a single, undivided blade attached to a twig |
| Compound | A plant leaf consisting of multiple seperate leaflets attached to a single central stalk or twig |
| Two leaf patterns | Alternate or opposite |
