B. Studying Life
20
1. Scientific Method a. Reasoning b. Process
21
Figure 1.24
22
Experimental variables: i. Independent = tested for or manipulated ii. Dependent = changes due to Independent iii. Control = held constant

C. Classifying Life 1. Categories D, K, P, C, O, F, G, & S
25
Kingdom Monera Kingdom Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plantae Figure 1.15
26
Kingdom Animalia Figure 1.15
27
III. Characteristics of Animals A. Shared Characteristics
28
multi-cellular heterotrophs, contractile proteins, special tissues, stages of development, motile, and fixed adult size
29
IV. Evidence of Selection A. Fossil Record
30
The fossil record is based on what three key points of data to age identify them? Strata Positioning & Half-Life Dating Racemization Magnetic Reversal
31
B. Comparative Anatomy
32
Analogous structures = Outward similar inward different or same function different structure Figure 1.21
33
Homologous Structures = Outward different inward similar or same structure different function Vestigial Structures =Outwardly useless remnants?? Figure 22.15
34
C. Comparative Embryology
35
Similarities in developmental patterns in animals Figure 32.8 Figure 32.9
36
D. Molecular Homology
