Organisms are classified into a hierarchical classification that groups closely related individuals.
The species is the basic biological unit around which classifications are based.
Speciation is the evolutionary process by which reproductively isolated biological populations evolve to become distinct species.There are few mechanisms through which this process can be well understood.

Factors promote adaptive radiations
1.Generally speaking, adaptive radiations occur when new, unoccupied ecological niches become accessible to a founder population.
This can happen after a mass extinction during which the previous occupiers of those niches died out.
t can also happen when a colonizing species arrives at an island. (For instance the ancestor of the honeycreepers in Hawaii, or of Darwin's "finches" in the Galapagos)
Honey creeper
Change feeding habitat
At least 56 species of Hawaiian honeycreepers known to have existed, although all but 18 of them are now extinct.
Lack of competition. When a species enters an adaptive zone, it is poorly equipped to compete with species that have become adapted to the same niche.
For example, mudskippers are fish that are making a living on land, but they are marine fish and they don't have to compete against frogs and salamanders, which are restricted to fresh water. That is why we don't see freshwater mudskippers.
process of adaptive radiation
Ecological Release Colonization of species.
Taxon cycle
Habitat varying as population expand- species dispersal.
Adaptive plasticity Phenotypic plasticity(behavior change)
Property of an individual or genotype that may be adaptive, maladaptive or neutral with regard to an individual's fitness.
The particular way an individual's (or genotype's) phenotype varies across environments can be described as a reaction norm (Single genotype-phenotypic expression)

Taxonomic Collections, Preservation and Curating of InsectsKamlesh Patel
Taxonomy: Taxonomy is the science of defining and naming groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics.
The classification of organisms is according to hierarchal system or in taxonomic ranks (eg; domain, kingdom, phylum class, order, family, genus and species) based on phylogenetic relationship established by genetic analysis.
Taxonomic Collection : Biological collection are typically preserved plant or animals specimens along with specimen documentations such as labels and notations.
Dry Collection - Dry collections consist of those specimens that are preserved in a dry state.
Wet Collection - Wet collections are specimens kept in a liquid preservative to prevent their deterioration.

El tequila es un destilado originario del municipio de Tequila en el estado de Jalisco, México. Se elabora a partir de la fermentación y destilado al igual que el mezcal, jugo extraído del agave, en particular el llamado agave azul (Agave tequilana), con denominación de origen en cinco estados de la República Mexicana (Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, Tamaulipas y por supuesto en todo el estado de Jalisco ya que en los tres primeros solo se puede producir en algunos municipios, los fronterizos a Jalisco). Es quizás la bebida más conocida y representativa de México en el mundo.
this ppt traces the evolutionary history of humans and presents the description of evolution on the basis of various theories put forward by various eminent scientists
Sociobiology carries the assumption that the behavior is influenced by genes, though not rigidly determined by them; any behavior emerges through the interaction between the genes and environment. Edward O. Wilson brought the term (and the concept it represents) into both academic and popular usage with his 1976 book Sociobiology: The New Synthesis (Wilson 1976). Wilson was an ant biologist and had spent his career observing the much ramified social behavior of these insects, though his book extended to social behavior throughout the animal kingdom. The book was a synthesis of the existing work, clearly establishing how the evolutionary theory could be applied to the understanding of social behavior. It was a landmark in evolutionary biology and was resulted in two key shifts in the study of animal behavior. First, sociobiology’s mainly focuses is on the functional significance of behavior (Wilson et al., 2005). Previous work on the animal behavior, in the discipline of ethnology for example, had focused more on the mechanisms by which the behavior is brought about.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2. INTRODUCTION
The only thing that goes up and never
down is time or age. With time and age, many
things change including new constructions,
modification as needed to be fittest,
destruction of unfit ones and even extinction.
All these things are under evolution.
Modern synthetic theory is most
accepted theory on organic evolution
explaining evolution based genetics,
molecular biology and other modern
branches of biology.
3. MODERN SYNTHETIC THEORY
Basis provided by :- Dobzhansky (1937) in book
Genetics and origin of species.
Designated as so by :- Huxley(1942).
Final shape by :- Muller (1949), Fisher (1958),
Wright (1968), Myer (1970), Stebbins (1976).
Five Basic Processes
Gene Mutation – It is a sudden change in
gene structure or arrangement bringing
permanent phenotypic changes in individual.
Chromosomal Aberration – It is change in
structure and number of chromosomes.
4. Recombination – It is process of exchange of
fragments between non sister chromatids of
homologous chromosomes due to crossing
over.
Natural Selection – It is selection of
individual possessing adaptive characters by
environment as the fittest to survive.
Isolation – It is mechanism of separation of
inter breeding among conspecifics.
5. Two Accessory Factors
Genetic Drift – It is the fluctuation of gene
frequencies by chance in a small population.
It tends to eliminate less frequent alleles to
attain homozygosity.
Hybridisation – In breeding among two
different mating types. ( different populations
of a species, closely related species, distant
species ).
