||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Properties of Life | Order and structure, energy processes, reproduction, growth and development, response to environment, homeostasis, evolution
🗑
|
||||
Adaptation | A feature common in a population because it is advantageous, a process of natural selection
🗑
|
||||
Natural Selection | Process by which organisms with favourable traits are more likely to survive to reproduce.
🗑
|
||||
Evolution | Descent with modification from small scale (change in gene frequency between 2 generations) to large scale (descent of different species from common ancestor)*speciation
🗑
|
||||
Tree of Life |
🗑
|
||||
Way of organizing relationships between species, based off a universal common ancestor and branching off from there.
🗑
|
|||||
Homology | Similarities in traits due to a common ancestor, don't need to have the same function, but has to have a similar structure
🗑
|
||||
Analogy | Similarities in traits due to environment, may have the same function, but doesn't have the same structure
🗑
|
||||
Old approach to phylogeny | Looking at the morphology (bone structure)
🗑
|
||||
New approach to phylogeny | Look at DNA and genetic similarities
🗑
|
||||
Outgroup | An organism that does not belong to the group whose evolutionary relationships are being investigated
🗑
|
||||
Maximum Parsimony | The rule which says the tree with the least amount of assumptions or changes is most likely the most correct one
🗑
|
||||
Apomorphy | A character trait that evolved from a pre-existing characteristic
🗑
|
||||
Taxonomy | The science of naming and classifying organisms based on similarities.
🗑
|
||||
Taxonomic Structure | Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
🗑
|
||||
Systematics | Organization of organisms based on evolutionary relationships. Approaches: Phenetics (similar traits), Cladistics (common ancestor), Synthetic (combination of both)
🗑
|
||||
Phenetics | Based on overall character similarities, impartial, but can lead to more broken-up trees. Usually faster.
🗑
|
||||
Cladistics | Based on evolutionary relationships. All species that share a common ancestor are part of a group.
🗑
|
||||
Monophyletic group | A taxon in which all species share a common ancestor
🗑
|
||||
Polyphyletic group | Derivation from 2 or more ancestral sources
🗑
|
||||
Paraphyletic group | A taxon in which all share a common ancestor but not all species are used
🗑
|
||||
Synthetics | Based on evolutionary similarities and genetic differences. Can be subjective because analogous traits are discarded.
🗑
|
||||
Eukaryotes | Most are simgle-celled and called Protists. Has organelles in cytoplasm. DNA and cytoplasm are separated by nucleus.
🗑
|
||||
Protists | Has a flexible cell surface, dynamic flow of membrane (endo/exocytosis), differentiated cell surface (microtubules, microfilaments, flagella)
🗑
|
||||
Primary Endosymbiosis | The theory that Eukaryotes evolved from the union between a cyanobacteria and an archea. The cyanobacteria became mitochondria.
🗑
|
||||
Protist Locomoty |
🗑
|
||||
Unikonta | Amoebozoa, Plasmodial Slime Mold, Opisthokonta
🗑
|
||||
Excavata | Euglenozoanes, Diplomonads/Parabasalids, Kinetoplastidia
🗑
|
||||
Archaeplastida | Red Algae, Glaucophytes, Green Algae
🗑
|
||||
Chromalveolates | Alveolata (ciliates, dinoflagellates, apicomplexans), Stramenopiles (diatoms, golden algae, brown algae, oomycetes)
🗑
|
||||
Rhizaria | Radiolarians, Foraminifera
🗑
|
||||
Amoebozoa | Free-living. Move through pseudopodea and eat through phagocytosis
🗑
|
||||
Opisthokonta | Ancestors of animals and fungi. Have 1 flagellum with microvilli. Non-motile
🗑
|
||||
Euglenozoans | Have a flagella with a crystalline rod inside it
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
