| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| species | group of interbreeding populations |
| reproductive isolation | factors that prevent speciation when living in the same region could develop in many ways like: Behavioral, geographical, and temporal |
| Behavioral isolation | signals to attract mates differ between species |
| geographical isolation | when populations are separated by geographic barriers |
| Temporal isolation | when 2 populations reproduce at different times |
| evolution | changes in the genetic material or frequency of genes of a population over time |
| 5 changes of evolution | natural selection, mutation, non- random mating, gene flow, and genetic drift |
| natural selection | the ability for a population to adapt to their environment |
| mutation | Random changes to genes that may result in a new trait |
| non-random mating | the selection of an organisms mate based on certain criteria |
| gene flow | the migration of organisms into or out of a population which changes the gene pool |
| genetic drift | the drastic decrease in population size, leaving only those genes present in the remaining individuals in the gene pool |
| 6 kingdoms of life | Bacteria, Archaea, Animal, Fungi, Plants, Protists |
| 3 Domains | Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya |
| the multicellular (Eukaryotic) and both sexual and asexual kingdoms | Protists, fungi, plants, and animals |
| Limiting factor | Are factors that do not allow a population to over grow and control it. |
| 3 ways of getting energy | photosynthesis, inorganic compound, and organic compound |
| the unicellular (prokaryotic) and asexual kingdoms | Bacteria and Archaea |
| all cells contain.... (4 things) | DNA, cell membrane, ribosomes, and cytoplasm |
| taxonomy | science of identifying and classifying all organisms: Domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species |
