1. How did you feel about the ACT science portion? 2. Did doing practice questions help? (not did you like doing them, but did it help) 3. What could we have done to better prepare you? 4. Any other comments about the ACT science portion? You can vent (briefly) if you like
2
Big Changes
3
Is concerned without how new taxonomic groups came to be I.e. how did mammals evolve from ancestral reptiles
4
Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
5
Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species Eukarya Animalia Chordata Mammalia Primate Hominidae Homo Sapiens
6
Dude Kings ▪ Play ▪ Chess On Fancy Gold Sets
7
Usually a population gets separated Different populations encounter different environments and accumulate different traits When they are so different they can’t reproduce- they are considered a new species
8
Cannot naturally reproduce with each other Is a byproduct of changing DNA
9
Live in different habitats Mate at different times Different mating behaviors Different equipment Sperm and egg don’t fuse
10
The offspring fail to survive The offspring are sterile i.e. mules So in the long run the genes of the two populations don’t mix
11
We look for anatomical similarities Similarities in the amino acids in their proteins Similarities in DNA sequence Similarities in behavior Similarities in development Similarities to fossil record
12
There are a LOT of species Phylogenetic trees get really, really complicated and extremely detailed
13
The top means modern-day species As you go lower you have the ancestors of that species Branching means the populations split into two different groups The more recently the groups branched, the more closely related The higher on the tree you group things, the more specific the group
14
Felis Catus Felis
17
Divergent evolution Adaptive Radiation Co-evolution Convergent evolution
18
Two populations evolve to look very different, despite being related i.e. whales and hippos are closely related- but look very different Have homologous structures
19
When many species evolve from a single ancestor I.e. all primates, all mammals etc.
20
Evolution of one species affects the other i.e. birds and flowers, predators and prey
21
2 different species evolve to become more similar i.e. birds and bats, dolphins and fish etc. Leads to analogous characteristics
22
Each group will cover a major branch on the Tree of Life Identify the unique features of that group, anything important or interesting about them, and examples of members. Present them to the class You will be quizzed on the main points on all of the groups
