D2 species and speciation
The document discusses speciation and the formation of new species. It defines key terms like allele frequency, gene pool, and reproductive isolation. It describes several mechanisms by which reproductive barriers can form between populations, including geographic, temporal, and behavioral isolation. Speciation occurs when genetic changes result in lineages that can no longer successfully interbreed. The document provides examples of allopatric speciation driven by geographic isolation, as well as pre- and post-zygotic barriers that reduce gene flow and lead to speciation.

PowerPoint presentation that highlights chapters 13 and 14 in Campbell's Essential Biology (3rd. edition). It can also be used for Miller & Levine's Biology (2006 Ed.) for chapters 15-18.
Speciation3
The document discusses different concepts of what constitutes a species, including the Biological Species Concept and Phylogenetic Species Concept. The Biological Species Concept defines a species as groups that can interbreed, with reproductive isolation maintained by intrinsic barriers. The Phylogenetic Species Concept defines species as the smallest diagnosable units that form monophyletic groups. Allopatric speciation, where physical isolation allows populations to diverge genetically, is also discussed as a primary mechanism of speciation.

Conservation 4.1
The document discusses key concepts related to biodiversity including genetic diversity, species diversity, and habitat diversity. It defines biodiversity as the living diversity within an area. Genetic diversity refers to the genetic variation within a species. Species diversity is the variety of species in an area. Habitat diversity means the range of habitats or ecological niches. The document then discusses the theory of evolution by natural selection proposed by Charles Darwin, explaining how organisms adapt to their environments and reproductive isolation leads to speciation. Plate tectonics is mentioned as a factor influencing evolution and biodiversity by separating land masses and creating new habitats. Ecological succession and the impact of humans on biodiversity are also summarized.

Extracts from the plant have strong antiviral properties that are very helpful for fighting disease.
2. Give 2 reasons conservation of biodiversity may be beneficial to our health.
There may be some organisms that can provide health benefits, such as the Dung of the Devil. Also, greater biodiversity allows for greater stabilization of the climate, which is necessary for our well-being.
3. Give 3 examples of how natural substances have been used to treat disease.
The rosy periwinkle is used to treat childhood leukemia and Hodgkin’s disease. The mayapple is the source of two anti-cancer drugs. Other medicines come from invertebrates such as sponges, corals, and sea squirts.
4. Which has more biodiversity a carefully tended lawn or a small plot of untended land? Explain.
A small plot of untended land has greater biodiversity, since there is a greater variety of species there than on the well-kempt and uniform lawn.
5. Define species.
A species is a group of organisms that is distinct from other groups in terms of characteristics, and that can breed with each other.
6. Approximately how many species have scientists named? How many species are estimated to live on Earth?
About 2 million have been named, and about 10 million are thought to live on Earth.
7. Compare and contrast species richness and species evenness. Use an example to explain.
Species richness – the number of species in a given area, such as a pond or a tree
Species evenness – the proportion of the number of species in an ecosystem
Two communities may have an equal species richness, but one community may be dominated by one species, while the other may have an equal number of each species.
8. How are species phylogenies determined?
They are determined by the similarity of different species (morphology and behavior)

Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
10. Speciation is an example of microevolution or macroevolution? Explain.
Speciation is an example of macroevolution. Both result in the creation of new species. Microevolution is small-scale changes in a species that may eventually result in speciation.
11. Explain 2 ways mutations may occur. Are they good or bad? Explain.
Mutations may occur by UV radiation. It can also occur through mistakes made while DNA is copied.
12. Explain how recombination occurs.
It is the switching of one small part of a chromosome with another during meiosis.
13. Give 2 examples of how humans are purposefully or inadvertently directing evolution of organisms.
The breeding of plants and animals for human use is done purposefully. The evolution of weeds after being sprayed with herbicides is inadvertent.
14. List the 5 key ideas of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection.
1. Individuals.
Crayfish And Earthworms
This document provides information about crayfish, earthworms, and their reproductive systems. It states that earthworms are hermaphrodites, having both male and female sex organs. During a lab, the author discovered earthworms have seminal receptacles and vesicles. For crayfish, males have testes while females do not. The document then discusses earthworm and crayfish anatomy in more detail.
Variation.......qudratullah
This document discusses biological variation and its role in evolution. It defines variation as differences between individuals of a species. Variation can be continuous, with a range of values, or discontinuous with only a few categories. Variation arises from genetic and environmental factors. Natural selection acts on this variation, favoring adaptations that help organisms survive and reproduce, leading to evolution over time as beneficial traits become more common. The document provides examples of anatomical, physiological and behavioral adaptations.

Vikas
1) Sympatric speciation is the evolution of new species from a single ancestral species while inhabiting the same geographic region.
2) It occurs through mechanisms like disruptive selection on traits like beak morphology in finches or specialization to different host plants in insects.
3) Examples of possible sympatric speciation include apple maggot flies specializing to feed on apples or hawthorns, and Lake Nicaraguan cichlid fish species.
Extinction
1) Macroevolution describes large-scale evolutionary events such as speciation, extinction, and major trends seen in the fossil record over long periods of time.
2) Stephen Jay Gould recognized three tiers of evolutionary timescales: population genetics (tens to thousands of years), rates of speciation and extinction (millions of years), and major extinction events (tens to hundreds of millions of years).
3) Differential rates of speciation and extinction among lineages over geological time, known as species selection, represents an expansion of Darwin's theory of natural selection and helps explain macroevolutionary patterns seen in the fossil record.
Reproductive Specialist ( Reproduction, Speciation &Amp;...
This document discusses speciation in finches on an island where the food supply changes over time. Scientists observe the evolution of four finch species - Pherous robustus, Tweezeris bentails, Plierous normalis, and Tweeseris pointus - as the main food source switches from corn to block plants. Pherous robustus does well when corn is abundant but its population declines as block plants become the only available food. The changing environment exerts selective pressure that influences the finch populations over multiple generations.
Pap.macroevolution
Macroevolution examines evolution over long time periods of thousands to millions of years. It studies changes above the species level, including the emergence of new species through speciation and loss of species through extinction. Key areas of study in macroevolution include building phylogenetic trees to demonstrate evolutionary relationships between extinct and modern species based on morphological comparisons, and using molecular analysis to help validate these relationships when possible. Mass extinctions that eliminate large percentages of species are also investigated to better understand causes and patterns of extinction and subsequent radiations as new species evolve to fill open niches.
Antarctic Marine Biology
1. Reproductive interference occurs when the mating signals or behaviors of one species interfere with those of another species, preventing individuals from finding and reproducing with members of their own species.
2. There are many documented examples of reproductive interference occurring in closely related and invasive species that share habitats. Reproductive interference can influence species interactions, habitat use, and drive evolutionary changes in mating behaviors.
3. While some reported cases of reproductive interference may seem to have minor ecological effects, interference from invasive species can contribute to native species displacement. There is also evidence that reproductive interference plays a role in driving reproductive character displacement between co-occurring species.
Levels of biodiversity (Plant Biodiversity)
Biodiversity exists at multiple levels - genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity. Genetic diversity refers to variation within and between populations/species. Species diversity looks at the variety and relative abundance of species in a community. Ecosystem diversity considers ecological variation within ecosystems, including trophic levels and interactions between organisms, as well as the variety of ecosystem types in a landscape.
Evolution
The document summarizes key concepts related to evolution including:
1. Evolution occurs as genetic changes in a population over time lead to changes in traits and gene frequencies. Equilibrium is when a population's gene pool is stable.
2. Natural selection drives evolution when heritable traits that increase survival and reproduction become more common in a population. Variation, reproductive competition, and heritability are required.
3. Isolation, including geographic, ecological, behavioral and reproductive barriers, can lead to genetic changes and speciation as populations diverge independently.
4. Evidence for evolution includes homologous structures, the fossil record, molecular and genetic similarities, geographic distribution patterns, and examples of artificial and natural selection
Variation 2
The document outlines learning outcomes related to defining and explaining variation. It discusses how variation occurs within and between species, and can be continuous or discontinuous. Both genetic and environmental factors are described as causes of variation. Examples of continuous and discontinuous traits in plants and animals are provided.
evolution2.pdf
This document discusses evolution through natural selection. It provides background on key concepts like fitness, variation, competition, and adaptation. It also presents three case studies as examples:
1) Sickle cell anemia, where the sickle cell trait provides resistance to malaria, keeping the frequency of that genotype high.
2) The peppered moth, where the frequency of light and dark moths changed with the environment during the Industrial Revolution due to camouflage and predation.
3) Darwin's finches in the Galapagos, where different beak shapes evolved on different islands adapted to local food sources like insects versus seeds.
Taxonomy and the Conservation of Endangered Species
The classification of individual species is often necessary to obtain protection and funding for conservation purposes. This presentation explains the process of taxonomic classifications and how modern genomic sequencing techniques are important considerations in the classification process.
Speciation 2013
The document discusses two patterns of speciation: gradualism (anagenesis) in which a species slowly changes over time through natural selection until it is considered a new species, and branching (cladogenesis) in which a species rapidly splits into two or more new species. Branching speciation occurs through geographic isolation of populations followed by the evolution of reproductive barriers between the isolated groups, preventing interbreeding. This process of branching is the basis for biological diversity as it leads to the formation of multiple new species from the original.
Models Of Speciation
The document discusses several modes of speciation including allopatric, peripatric, parapatric, sympatric, and hybrid speciation. It provides examples for each mode, such as fruit flies speciating through peripatric isolation on a new island. Additionally, it covers related topics like macroevolution occurring over long time periods, radiometric dating techniques used to determine geological timescales, and examples of cospeciation between species.
Hermaphrodite Fern Experiment
The document discusses an experiment on hermaphrodite ferns. Statistical analysis showed a relationship between spore density and male sex determination, with higher spore densities promoting more male or hermaphrodite ferns. This is likely due to competition for limited resources causing males to develop for their higher self-sufficiency. The sexual phenotype of ferns is also influenced by their social environment and pheromones help regulate reproduction to avoid inbreeding depression.
MidtermReview
- All organisms are made of cells that come from preexisting cells (cell theory)
- Natural selection occurs when there is heritable variation in traits that influence survival and reproduction
- Examples of natural selection can be seen in Galapagos finches, where beak size influences survival during droughts or rainy periods
- Genetic drift is a random change in allele frequencies over time that can be influenced by small population size, founder effects, or population bottlenecks
10 25-11
1. Adaptation, natural selection, and the five steps of evolution are reviewed. Natural selection requires overproduction of offspring, inherited variation, and a struggle to survive leading to differential reproductive success.
2. Artificial selection by humans differs from natural selection in nature. Natural selection results in adaptations that increase an organism's ability to survive and reproduce.
3. Loss of biodiversity reduces opportunities for variation and genetic diversity, decreasing ecosystem stability and resilience to change. New species increase biodiversity while extinction decreases it.
The Diversity of Life (updated)
This document provides an overview of Chapter 10 from a biology textbook. It discusses:
1) How life on Earth most likely originated from non-living materials and evolved into self-replicating systems and early cells.
2) How species are the basic units of biodiversity and there can be difficulties defining species, such as with asexual organisms and ring species.
3) How evolutionary trees help conceptualize how different species are related through their shared ancestors and show how biodiversity has diversified over time.

2. Evolution depends on variation in the traits that individuals possess within a population. Describe how that variation is produced.
3. Describe the four main mechanisms of evolution (mutation, genetic drift, gene flow, natural selection) and how they operate.
4. Define species. Describe the ways in which new species may arise.
Explain how microevolution differs from macroevolution.
1) A. Anteaters have long, sticky tongues that they can extend into holes to reach insects to eat.
Individuals with a genotype for long tongues may have increased fitness due to their ability to reach insects in deeper holes. This trait could be a result of evolution by.
B. If that is the case, then anteaters with longer tongues should survive and than individuals with shorter tongues. Long tongues could then be considered a(an)
more
C. The variation between individual anteaters in terms of their tongue lengths and other characteristics is produced by
and recombination of genes during gamete
production and fertilization.
2) The population of elephant seals on the west coast of North America was reduced by hunting to only 20 or so individuals. The lucky individuals survived by chance rather than the presence of any traits to help them avoid hunters. Now, there are over 30,000 individuals in the population, but the genetic variation is much lower than you would typically expect. The loss of genetic diversity is an example of microevolution occurring by
3) Coconuts are buoyant and travel across oceans, being pushed by water currents and the wind. If they arrive on the shores of an island, they may germinate and grow into reproductive adults.
Movement of coconuts between nearby islands in an archipelago allows genes from coconut palms on one island to be mixed (via reproduction) with genes from coconut palms on other islands. The movement of genes between islands means that the islands experience that prevents the trees on individual islands from being reproductively isolated.
4) As climate change causes glaciers to melt in Greenland and other polar areas, large streams of meltwater form. Suppose these streams form barriers that prevent ants from crossing from one side to the other, isolating the ants from the populations on the other side of the streams. If this persists for many years, speciation could occur. What kind of speciation would this be? Describe how this process would operate.
5) The wildfires in California are killing millions of organisms including birds, squirrels, insects and other animals. If the frequency of traits in these populations changes as a result of the deaths from the fire, two possible mechanisms of evolution could be at work. Name the two possible mechanisms and describe how each would be operating in this scenario.

Lecture 11 Speciation F2017.ppt
This document discusses species and speciation. It addresses major issues in speciation theory, including definitions of what constitutes a species and the mechanisms of reproductive isolation. Speciation requires the evolution of barriers to gene flow between populations, and there are debates around different species concepts and how to apply them, especially given horizontal gene transfer in microbes. Operational species concepts aim to delineate reproductively isolated lineages but have challenges around hybrid taxa.

Introduction
Biodiversity, short for biological diversity, includes the genetic variation between all organisms, species, and
populations, and all of their complex communities and ecosystems. It also reflects to the interrelatedness of
genes, species, and ecosystems and their interactions with the environment. Biodiversity is not evenly distrib-
uted across the globe; rather, it varies greatly and even varies within regions. It is partially ruled by climate,
whereas tropical regions can support more species than a polar climate. In whole, biodiversity represents
variation within three levels:
• Species diversity
• Ecosystem diversity
• Genetic diversity
It should be noted that diversity at one of these levels may
not correspond with diversity within other levels. The degree
of biodiversity, and thus the health of an ecosystem, is im-
pacted when any part of that ecosystem becomes endan-
gered or extinct.
The term species refers to a group of similar organisms that
reproduce among themselves. Species diversity refers to
the variation within and between populations of species, as
well as between different species. Sexual reproduction criti-
cally contributes to the variation within species. For exam-
ple, a pea plant that is cross-fertilized with another pea plant
can produce offspring with four different looks! This genetic
mixing creates the diversity seen today.
Figure 1: There are more than 32,000 species of
fish – more than any other vertebrate!

Biodiversity
Ecosystem diversity examines the different habitats, biological communities, and ecological processes in
the biosphere, as well as variation within an individual ecosystem. The differences in rainforests and deserts
represent the variation between ecosystems. The physical characteristics that determine ecosystem diversity
are complex, and include biotic and abiotic factors.
? Did You Know...
A present day example of natural
selection can be seen in the cray-
fish population. The British crayfish
are crustaceans that live in rivers in
England. The American crayfish
was introduced to the same bodies
of water that were already populat-
ed by the British crayfish. The
American crayfish are larger, more
aggressive and carry an infection
that kills British crayfish but to
which they are immune. As a re-
sult, the British crayfish are de-
creasing in number and are ex-
pected to become extinct in Britain
within the next 50 years. Thus, the
American crayfish have a genetic
variation that gives them an ad-
vantage over the British crayfish to
survive and reproduce.

1) Sympatric speciation is the evolution of new species from a single ancestral species while inhabiting the same geographic region.
2) It occurs through mechanisms like disruptive selection on traits like beak morphology in finches or specialization to different host plants in insects.
3) Examples of possible sympatric speciation include apple maggot flies specializing to feed on apples or hawthorns, and Lake Nicaraguan cichlid fish species.
Extinction
1) Macroevolution describes large-scale evolutionary events such as speciation, extinction, and major trends seen in the fossil record over long periods of time.
2) Stephen Jay Gould recognized three tiers of evolutionary timescales: population genetics (tens to thousands of years), rates of speciation and extinction (millions of years), and major extinction events (tens to hundreds of millions of years).
3) Differential rates of speciation and extinction among lineages over geological time, known as species selection, represents an expansion of Darwin's theory of natural selection and helps explain macroevolutionary patterns seen in the fossil record.

This document discusses speciation in finches on an island where the food supply changes over time. Scientists observe the evolution of four finch species - Pherous robustus, Tweezeris bentails, Plierous normalis, and Tweeseris pointus - as the main food source switches from corn to block plants. Pherous robustus does well when corn is abundant but its population declines as block plants become the only available food. The changing environment exerts selective pressure that influences the finch populations over multiple generations.
Pap.macroevolution
Macroevolution examines evolution over long time periods of thousands to millions of years. It studies changes above the species level, including the emergence of new species through speciation and loss of species through extinction. Key areas of study in macroevolution include building phylogenetic trees to demonstrate evolutionary relationships between extinct and modern species based on morphological comparisons, and using molecular analysis to help validate these relationships when possible. Mass extinctions that eliminate large percentages of species are also investigated to better understand causes and patterns of extinction and subsequent radiations as new species evolve to fill open niches.
Antarctic Marine Biology
1. Reproductive interference occurs when the mating signals or behaviors of one species interfere with those of another species, preventing individuals from finding and reproducing with members of their own species.
2. There are many documented examples of reproductive interference occurring in closely related and invasive species that share habitats. Reproductive interference can influence species interactions, habitat use, and drive evolutionary changes in mating behaviors.
3. While some reported cases of reproductive interference may seem to have minor ecological effects, interference from invasive species can contribute to native species displacement. There is also evidence that reproductive interference plays a role in driving reproductive character displacement between co-occurring species.
Levels of biodiversity (Plant Biodiversity)
Biodiversity exists at multiple levels - genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity. Genetic diversity refers to variation within and between populations/species. Species diversity looks at the variety and relative abundance of species in a community. Ecosystem diversity considers ecological variation within ecosystems, including trophic levels and interactions between organisms, as well as the variety of ecosystem types in a landscape.
Evolution
The document summarizes key concepts related to evolution including:
1. Evolution occurs as genetic changes in a population over time lead to changes in traits and gene frequencies. Equilibrium is when a population's gene pool is stable.
2. Natural selection drives evolution when heritable traits that increase survival and reproduction become more common in a population. Variation, reproductive competition, and heritability are required.
3. Isolation, including geographic, ecological, behavioral and reproductive barriers, can lead to genetic changes and speciation as populations diverge independently.
4. Evidence for evolution includes homologous structures, the fossil record, molecular and genetic similarities, geographic distribution patterns, and examples of artificial and natural selection
Variation 2
The document outlines learning outcomes related to defining and explaining variation. It discusses how variation occurs within and between species, and can be continuous or discontinuous. Both genetic and environmental factors are described as causes of variation. Examples of continuous and discontinuous traits in plants and animals are provided.
evolution2.pdf
This document discusses evolution through natural selection. It provides background on key concepts like fitness, variation, competition, and adaptation. It also presents three case studies as examples:
1) Sickle cell anemia, where the sickle cell trait provides resistance to malaria, keeping the frequency of that genotype high.
2) The peppered moth, where the frequency of light and dark moths changed with the environment during the Industrial Revolution due to camouflage and predation.
3) Darwin's finches in the Galapagos, where different beak shapes evolved on different islands adapted to local food sources like insects versus seeds.
Taxonomy and the Conservation of Endangered Species
The classification of individual species is often necessary to obtain protection and funding for conservation purposes. This presentation explains the process of taxonomic classifications and how modern genomic sequencing techniques are important considerations in the classification process.
Speciation 2013
The document discusses two patterns of speciation: gradualism (anagenesis) in which a species slowly changes over time through natural selection until it is considered a new species, and branching (cladogenesis) in which a species rapidly splits into two or more new species. Branching speciation occurs through geographic isolation of populations followed by the evolution of reproductive barriers between the isolated groups, preventing interbreeding. This process of branching is the basis for biological diversity as it leads to the formation of multiple new species from the original.
Models Of Speciation
The document discusses several modes of speciation including allopatric, peripatric, parapatric, sympatric, and hybrid speciation. It provides examples for each mode, such as fruit flies speciating through peripatric isolation on a new island. Additionally, it covers related topics like macroevolution occurring over long time periods, radiometric dating techniques used to determine geological timescales, and examples of cospeciation between species.
Hermaphrodite Fern Experiment
The document discusses an experiment on hermaphrodite ferns. Statistical analysis showed a relationship between spore density and male sex determination, with higher spore densities promoting more male or hermaphrodite ferns. This is likely due to competition for limited resources causing males to develop for their higher self-sufficiency. The sexual phenotype of ferns is also influenced by their social environment and pheromones help regulate reproduction to avoid inbreeding depression.
MidtermReview
- All organisms are made of cells that come from preexisting cells (cell theory)
- Natural selection occurs when there is heritable variation in traits that influence survival and reproduction
- Examples of natural selection can be seen in Galapagos finches, where beak size influences survival during droughts or rainy periods
- Genetic drift is a random change in allele frequencies over time that can be influenced by small population size, founder effects, or population bottlenecks
10 25-11
1. Adaptation, natural selection, and the five steps of evolution are reviewed. Natural selection requires overproduction of offspring, inherited variation, and a struggle to survive leading to differential reproductive success.
2. Artificial selection by humans differs from natural selection in nature. Natural selection results in adaptations that increase an organism's ability to survive and reproduce.
3. Loss of biodiversity reduces opportunities for variation and genetic diversity, decreasing ecosystem stability and resilience to change. New species increase biodiversity while extinction decreases it.
The Diversity of Life (updated)
This document provides an overview of Chapter 10 from a biology textbook. It discusses:
1) How life on Earth most likely originated from non-living materials and evolved into self-replicating systems and early cells.
2) How species are the basic units of biodiversity and there can be difficulties defining species, such as with asexual organisms and ring species.
3) How evolutionary trees help conceptualize how different species are related through their shared ancestors and show how biodiversity has diversified over time.

C. The variation between individual anteaters in terms of their tongue lengths and other characteristics is produced by

2) The population of elephant seals on the west coast of North America was reduced by hunting to only 20 or so individuals. The lucky individuals survived by chance rather than the presence of any traits to help them avoid hunters. Now, there are over 30,000 individuals in the population, but the genetic variation is much lower than you would typically expect. The loss of genetic diversity is an example of microevolution occurring by
3) Coconuts are buoyant and travel across oceans, being pushed by water currents and the wind. If they arrive on the shores of an island, they may germinate and grow into reproductive adults.
Movement of coconuts between nearby islands in an archipelago allows genes from coconut palms on one island to be mixed (via reproduction) with genes from coconut palms on other islands. The movement of genes between islands means that the islands experience that prevents the trees on individual islands from being reproductively isolated.
4) As climate change causes glaciers to melt in Greenland and other polar areas, large streams of meltwater form. Suppose these streams form barriers that prevent ants from crossing from one side to the other, isolating the ants from the populations on the other side of the streams. If this persists for many years, speciation could occur. What kind of speciation would this be? Describe how this process would operate.
5) The wildfires in California are killing millions of organisms including birds, squirrels, insects and other animals. If the frequency of traits in these populations changes as a result of the deaths from the fire, two possible mechanisms of evolution could be at work.

Lecture 11 Speciation F2017.ppt
This document discusses species and speciation. It addresses major issues in speciation theory, including definitions of what constitutes a species and the mechanisms of reproductive isolation. Speciation requires the evolution of barriers to gene flow between populations, and there are debates around different species concepts and how to apply them, especially given horizontal gene transfer in microbes. Operational species concepts aim to delineate reproductively isolated lineages but have challenges around hybrid taxa.

• Biodiversity
• Species diversity
• Ecosystem diversity
• Genetic diversity
• Natural selection
• Extinction
Introduction
Biodiversity, short for biological diversity, includes the genetic variation between all organisms, species, and
populations, and all of their complex communities and ecosystems. It also reflects to the interrelatedness of
genes, species, and ecosystems and their interactions with the environment. Biodiversity is not evenly distrib-
uted across the globe; rather, it varies greatly and even varies within regions. It is partially ruled by climate,
whereas tropical regions can support more species than a polar climate. In whole, biodiversity represents
variation within three levels:
• Species diversity
• Ecosystem diversity
• Genetic diversity
It should be noted that diversity at one of these levels may
not correspond with diversity within other levels. The degree
of biodiversity, and thus the health of an ecosystem, is im-
pacted when any part of that ecosystem becomes endan-
gered or extinct.
The term species refers to a group of similar organisms that
reproduce among themselves. Species diversity refers to
the variation within and between populations of species, as
well as between different species. Sexual reproduction criti-
cally contributes to the variation within species. For exam-
ple, a pea plant that is cross-fertilized with another pea plant
can produce offspring with four different looks! This genetic
mixing creates the diversity seen today.
Figure 1: There are more than 32,000 species of
fish – more than any other vertebrate!

Biodiversity
Ecosystem diversity examines the different habitats, biological communities, and ecological processes in
the biosphere, as well as variation within an individual ecosystem. The differences in rainforests and deserts
represent the variation between ecosystems. The physical characteristics that determine ecosystem diversity
are complex, and include biotic and abiotic factors.
? Did You Know...
A present day example of natural
selection can be seen in the cray-
fish population. The British crayfish
are crustaceans that live in rivers in
England. The American crayfish
was introduced to the same bodies
of water that were already populat-
ed by the British crayfish. The
American crayfish are larger, more
aggressive and carry an infection
that kills British crayfish but to
which they are immune. As a re-
sult, the British crayfish are de-
creasing in number and are ex-
pected to become extinct in Britain
within the next 50 years. Thus, the
American crayfish have a genetic
variation that gives them an ad-
vantage over the British crayfish to
survive and reproduce.

This is a combined interview and short research paper. You are fir.docx
This is a combined interview and short research paper. You are first required to interview a health care worker and ask them to identify and discuss solutions to a perceived health care issue in their field. Then, you will research and discuss this issue and proposed solutions.
The paper should be at least 850 words. Use APA or MLA Style for your paper format. For assistance with this, reference the
Citation Style Guide
developed for the Stafford Library.
Part I: Interview
This portion of Paper 1 will be a written report based on your interview of an individual who works in the health care system. (This person could be a direct caregiver, such as a physician, nurse, therapist, dentist, pharmacist, or chiropractor, or it could be someone who works as a medical secretary, hospital administrator, or in medical billing.) This interview can be accomplished either in person or by phone.
Clearly state the worker’s job description, the type of facility or organization in which he or she works, a summary of his or her training and experience, whether her or she performs administrative duties or are involved in finances, and whether he or she provides direct patient care or works closely with other care professionals.
Elicit this individual’s overall perceptions of and general satisfaction with our current health care system and the facility where they work. Ask him or her to identify a key issue or concern, either with our health care system or in his or her particular setting, and the solutions this worker would propose to address this particular issue.
Interview part is done
Alanna Falk is a Medical office manager for an endocrinologist.
She has a bachelor’s degree in business administration and is a trained medical assistant for over twenty years.
She has direct contact with the three providers in her office as well as the patients on a daily basis.
She performs the administrative aspect of the office and fills in where needed.
Overall she enjoys her office but at times feel that it is overwhelming with the amount of patients and being her doctor is one of two in the area for this specialty.
One problem that she is having is getting the patients to get onboard with the use of technology to simplify and reduce the amount of time spent filling paperwork out to include the cost in staff printing, ink and filing space. This often delays the patients getting in the back office to see the physicians on time even after they are checked in on time and it throws the whole schedule off for the day.
She would like to go paperless as possible and being that their scheduling team gets their information for the most part over the phone she would like to utilize tablets or a computer program that will help them become more efficient in the practice and maintain patient privacy.
Part II: Discussion
Elaborate and discuss the health care issue identified by your interviewee, demonstrating your understanding of both the problem raised and their prop.

Use the Table from the Colloquium Study that links: Hypotheses, Variable Definition, and Measures (Survey Questions) as a model.
NOTE: You do NOT have to develop a Likert scale questions (unless one makes sense for your study).
Develop your own version of this for at least 2-3 survey questions or interview questions YOU will ask for you Draft and Final Research Design assignment.
In other words, and just to be clear, pick a question that would work for you. The Likert scale question below is just an example of a question I used to measure one variable. You need to pick a question that will work for you - it will measure your variables in your hypotheses.
If you don’t want to mess with formatting a table for this assignment (keep in mind you may want to for your Draft and Final Research Design assignment) you can just do it bulleted, for example:
Hypotheses: Policy actors within a coalition will show substantial consensus on deep core and policy core beliefs, less so on secondary aspects.
Concept Definition: Deep core beliefs: “General normative and ontological assumptions about human nature…the proper role of government vs. markets in general…” (Sabatier and Weible 2007).
Measures (Survey Questions):
“How liberal or conservative do you consider yourself to be on fiscal policy?” (Likert scale 1-5): 1) strongly disagree, 2) disagree, 3) neutral, 4) agree, 5) strongly agree
“How liberal or conservative do you consider yourself to be on social policy?” (Likert scale 1-5): 1) strongly disagree, 2) disagree, 3) neutral, 4) agree, 5) strongly agree

Abstract
The Relation between Heredity and Suicidal Behavior has many different experiments to use as examples. Some say that most individuals inherit the suicidal behavior and other does not. This paper will examine different experiments on the outcome of this topic and what might be influenced by genes that might run in a family. Then again there are the other factors that might show the influence of other suicidal behaviors. The outcome will provide different articles that will provide information on the behavior characteristics of suicidal behavior and what the interpersonal psychology theory of suicidal behavior just might be.

This discussion will allow you to examine several different preventive guidelines related to men's health. Please include at least three scholarly sources within your initial post.
Topic 1: Colorectal Cancer Screening
A 47-year-old man presents to your clinic for a routine physical. He considers himself to be “fairly healthy” and doesn’t routinely go to the doctor. His last physical was five years ago. In reviewing his chart, you see that his BMI is 30, he exercises twice a week at the local gym, and he does not take any medication. Part of your discussion during today’s visit is about screening for colorectal cancers. He did endorse some constipation in the review of systems. He noted an uncle in his family history who was diagnosed at age 54 with colon cancer. You begin to talk about colorectal screening, and the patient interrupts you and tells you that he is only 47 and that he should not have to worry about it until he is 50.
What are the recommendations and source(s) for the colorectal cancer screening test?
The patient thinks he does not have to worry about “being screened” until age 50. Is he correct? Why or why not? What age would you recommend screening for this patient and why? Does his family history come into play here?
What age would you recommend screening for this patient and why? Does his family history come into play here?
What are the screening options for this patient, and which would you recommend? Why?

Evolution Explain relationships between predator and prey and how they can influence allele frequency changes per generations. Be able to identify allele frequency changes within generations (....it will be obvious phenotypical changes.... they will look different!) Predator Prey Know how carrying capacities influence population growth. How would evolution (especially predator prey relationship) dictate carrying capacity... as well as allele frequency changes (be able to describe the relationship using the terms in VASR) Plant Reproduction Be able to identify the anatomy of a flower (know what the function of the anatomical parts). How do these parts play a role in pollination?
