The document describes DNA structure and replication. It begins by discussing early evidence that DNA is the genetic material, including Griffith's experiments showing bacterial transformation and Hershey and Chase's experiments tracing phage DNA and proteins during infection. Watson and Crick then developed the first accurate double-helix model of DNA structure in 1953 based on Franklin's X-ray crystallography images, with base-pairing of A-T and C-G. The document concludes by explaining that DNA replication involves unwinding the double helix and using each strand as a template to build new complementary strands based on base-pairing rules, with many proteins involved.
Nematoda are commonly known as roundworms. They are abundant, with over 20,000 named species. Nematodes can be free-living or parasitic. They have cylindrical bodies, pseudocoeloms, and must shed their cuticles to grow. They have specialized tissues and organ systems. Reproduction is usually sexual but some undergo parthenogenesis. Nematodes use longitudinal muscles and a pressurized pseudocoelom to move in a spiral motion. They feed through a variety of modes including as microbivores, predators, and parasites of plants or animals. Parasitic nematodes like Ascaris, dog heartworm, and others can infect humans and other animals.
The document summarizes two phyla - Porifera (sponges) and Cnidaria (jellyfish, corals, anemones, hydras). It describes their key characteristics, structures, taxonomy, and life cycles. Sponges are the simplest multicellular organisms with no tissues; they have skeletal structures like spicules. Cnidarians have stinging cells called nematocysts and a sac-like body plan. Their life cycles may involve both asexual polyp and sexual medusa stages. The phyla are divided into classes based on their structural and morphological features.
4th Grade Environmentall Days Field Trip, Fall 2015Heather Fogell
Student volunteers from Red Lion Area Senior High School run a hands-on, activity based ecology field trip for the district's 4th grade classes every year.
This document provides an overview of basic principles of animal form and function. It discusses how:
- Animal form and function are correlated at different levels of organization from cells to organ systems. An animal's size and shape affect how it interacts with its environment.
- Physical constraints like size, shape, and environment determine an animal's abilities and influence evolutionary convergence.
- Exchange of energy and materials with the environment depends on surface area and internal structures for diffusion. More complex body plans facilitate exchange through features like folded surfaces.
- Tissues are composed of specialized cells that combine into organs and organ systems through hierarchical organization. The four main tissue types each have distinct structures suited to their functions.
- Coordination and control within
This document discusses the chromosomal basis of inheritance and genetic linkage. It begins by explaining how Mendel's theories of heredity were later connected to chromosomes and genes having specific loci. It then discusses several of Thomas Hunt Morgan's experiments with fruit flies that provided evidence linking genes to chromosomes, including his discovery of sex-linked inheritance. The document outlines different systems of sex determination and inheritance patterns of sex-linked genes. It also explains how linkage affects inheritance and how genetic recombination through crossing over can produce new combinations of traits not seen in the parents.
1) The document summarizes a lecture on Mendelian genetics and inheritance patterns based on Mendel's experiments with pea plants. It describes Mendel's experiments, the laws of segregation and independent assortment that he discovered, and how these laws establish the basic principles of heredity and genetics.
2) It explains key genetic concepts like dominant and recessive traits, genotypes and phenotypes, monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. It also discusses how Mendel's laws relate to modern understanding of genes and chromosomes.
3) The document notes that while Mendel's work formed the basis of genetics, inheritance patterns are sometimes more complex than predicted by his simple models, such as when genes have multiple
The document summarizes the phylum Mollusca. It is divided into four main classes: Gastropoda which includes snails and slugs, Bivalvia which includes clams and mussels, Cephalopoda which includes squid and octopus, and Polyplacophora which includes chitons.
