Introduction Cladogram is a tree diagram that is designed to determine the relatedness and evolution of species. Two methods to produce a cladorgam one based on morphological characteristic and another based on sequence of amino acid. Based on morphological characteristic, first, taxa are chosen that are close or being interesting of their evolutionary relationships. Then, the characters are determined based on synapomorphies and the cladogram is produced based on the traits. The principle behind cladorgram, it identifies and considers only those characteristics that are new characteristics that arise over time.
d) Use that information to fill in the predicted fraction of each phenotype in the second data table. e) Finally, convert the predicted ratios to predicted percentages. Divide each number by 16, then multiply by 100. Step 2: Simulate the Cross in Step 1 a) Breed ten offspring mice. You can simulate breeding using either technology or cards and craft sticks, as described in the blue box at the end.
The Ecological Theory believes that a person’s development is reflective of five environmental systems (1) microsystem, (2) mesosystem, (3) exosystem, (4) macrosystem, and (5) chronosystem (McWhirter, McWhirter, McWhirter, & McWhirter, 2013). The ecological model discusses the Microsystem, which includes the small and direct environment that the child lives within, and the relationships or connections with the direct environment (McWhirter, et al., 2013). As an infant, my parents divorced and

Name:_________________________________________________________________ Period:______ Natural Selection Bunny Simulation http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/natural‐selection Adapted from the HHS Biology Team Feb, 2012. Background Information: In the mid 1800’s a scientist named Charles Darwin discovered and developed a mechanism for evolution that he called natural selection. Natural selection simply stated that within any population with variation there would be a struggle for existence that would ultimately lead to the survival of the fittest. Darwin then went on to say that those traits that were the most fit would be passed on to the next generation more frequently. This continual selection for certain traits and against others over
Lion king Ecological study Pt.1 Austin ball P2 biology 5-15-12 1) Identify a food chain consisting of organisms in the movie. Include at least three total organisms and be sure to identify which organism are the producer, primary consumer and secondary consumer. In addition, state the nutritional modality of the consumers (Is it an herbivore, carnivore, etc.) Grass(producer)--> Antelope(secondary comsumer,herbivore) --> Lion (tertiary comsumer, carnivore) 2) Make a list of as many organisms you can identify that contributed to a balanced ecosystem in and around Pride Rock. Categorize the organisms by their nutritional modality (producer, herbivore, carnivore, omnivore, decomposer).
Structural theories such as functionalism and Marxism are macro (large scale), and deterministic: they see society as a real thing existing over and above us, shaping our ideas and behaviour – individuals are like puppets, manipulated by society. Social action theorists use qualitative research methods to gather an in-depth understanding of human behaviour and the reasons behind such behaviour. This method investigates the why and how of decision making, not just what, where and when, for example, covert or overt participant observations and unstructured interviews. Structural approaches use methods that are scientific, as they want quantitative data (e.g. questionnaires and surveys).
Digital Imagining of Sitta caroolinesis in Southwest Fort Wayne, IN By Loren DeMien, Undergraduate student of Predental, University of Saint Francis, 2701 Spring Street, Fort Wayne, IN 46808. 20 November 2009 Abstract The digital imagining of birds took place at a resident’s house, where different species of birds were recorded. The Sitta carolinesis was one of species videotaped. The bird was visited the bird feeder 7 times for an average of 12.71 seconds. Introduction White-Breasted Nuthatches live in most of North America, southern part of Canada, and Central America.
