42. Characteristics of Life: 1.Order-

43. Basic Unit of Life: CELLS ) History of cell discovery - Prokaryotic - characteristics: found in: Eukaryotic - characteristics: found in.

44. Basic Unit of Life: CELLS (overhead) History of cell discovery - pg.4&6 Prokaryotic - characteristics: found in: Eukaryotic - characteristics: found in.

45. Characteristics of Life: 1.Order- 2.Reproduction Capabilities-

46. Characteristics of Life: 1.Order- 2.Ability to Reproduce- 3.Growth & Development-

47. ALL DNA Continuity for ALL life = DNA nucleotides4 nucleotides- gene- same genetic code different sequences = differences among organisms

52. Regulatory Mechanisms ensure balance in Life

53. Regulatory Mechanisms Negative feedback- accumulation of product inhibits an enzyme in the production sequence of product

54. Regulatory Mechanisms Positive feedback- accumulation of product enhances an enzyme increasing production of product.

55. Regulatory Mechanisms Platletes aggregate @ cut, chemicals released by platletes attract MORE platletes

56. EVOLUTION, UNITY, DIVERSITY

57. EVOLUTION IS THE CORE THEME Species change over time

58. EVOLUTION IS THE CORE THEME Species change over time Populations have potential to produce more offspring than can be supported.

59. EVOLUTION IS THE CORE THEME Species change over time Populations have potential to produce more offspring than can be supported. Natural selection

60. EVOLUTION IS THE CORE THEME phylogenic tree Similar species share a common ancestor on phylogenic tree All life connected and traced back to prokaryotes

61. EVOLUTION, UNITY, DIVERSITY Diversity Diversity of all life - Taxonomy- Unity Unity of all life- cell structure, DNA, metabolic pathways

62. Scientific Processes 1. Asking a question John Endler Univ of Cal - why is there a significant difference in populations of guppies regarding average age and size @ sexual maturity?

63. Scientific Processes 2. Hypothesis - testable, tentative explanation for what we observe. Could it be the predator which preys predominately on the population?

64. Scientific Processes 3. Prediction - if/then (If the hypothesis is true, then the results of the experiment will be…) IF, guppies from Pike-Cichlid pools are introduced to new pools th,at contain only killifish THEN, the average age and size at maturity will be heavierand older than nontransplanted individuals

65. Scientific Processes 4. Testing the validity of the hypothesis Control Group - the group not moved Experimental Group - the group that was moved to the pool with only killifish, and no guppies

66. Scientific Processes 5. Conclusion
