PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Adaption-process by which an animals or plants become fitted to its environment it is the result of natural selection acting upon heritable variation..
Lupinus texensis, is a flower that in the plant kingdom . With other related species of lupines also called bluebonnets, it is the state flower of Texas
commensalisman is the association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
Dominant allele any allele that is always expressed in the phenotype of an organism.
Ecosystem-a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment.
Ferroplasma Acidophilum-It is non-motile as it lacks flagella .It lives in a metal-heavy environment containing high levels of iron and sulfur at a very acidic pH. It has been categorized as an extremophile as it grows optimally at a pH of 1.7
Genetic-The study of the patterns of inheritance of specific traits. Relating to genes and genetic information
Hereditary-determined by genetic factors and therefore able to be passed on from parents to their offspring or descendants.
Immune System:
Body's defense against infectious organisms and other harmful invaders.
Jaboulay's Amputation is an amputation of an entire leg with one lateral half of the pelvis of the same side.
Karyote Levels:A karyotype is the number and appearance of chromosomes in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell.
Smaller units of the components of organisms to help examine life.
Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in 2 daughter cells each having the same amount of chromosomes.
Natural selection is the process by which individuals that are better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce than other members of the same species.
Overpopulation is when there is an excessive amount of organisms living in a region causing resources to be scarce.
Photosynthesis the process by which plants use the sun's energy to make food.
Q→Quantitative Inheritance- Quantitative Inheritance is the pattern of inheritance where a single phenotype trait is governed by more thanone pair of genes. An example for human's is their inherited skin color.
R→Red Jungle Fowl- The red jungle fowl is apart of the animalia kingdom and is thought to share a common ancestor with the domesticated chicken. It is a tropical member of the Phasianidae family. This species can be found wild in several Asian countries and various Hawaiian Islands. Each place has their own subspecies of the red jungle fowl.
S→Sarcoscypha Coccinea- Scarcoscypha Coccinea is the scientific name for the scarlet elf cup which is a type of fungus. This fungus grows during the Winter and Spring in the West Coast, usually growing on top of hardwood sticks and branches.
Uterus-The hollow muscular organ in female mammals in which the fertilized ovum normally becomes embedded and in which the developing embryo and foetus is nourished.
V→Venenivibrio Sagnispumantis- Venenivibrio Sagnispumantis is a type of eubacteria. It was one of the first microorganisms to be separated from the hot springs Champagne Pool in New Zealand.
W→Water Cycle- The water cycle is the process by which water circulates between the earth's oceans, atmosphere, and land. It involves precipitation, drainage, evaporation, and transpiration.
X→Xenobiotic- Xenobiotic are substances that are foreign to the body or ecosystem. Different examples include:
- Antibiotics
- Synthetic Drugs
-Environmental Pollutants
Y chromosome- the sex chromosome that occurs as one of a pair with the X-chromosome in the diploid cells of the males of many animals, including humans
Z→Zoo-flagellates: A type of protista that is a member of the Zoomastigina. The flagellate protozoan lacks photosynthesis and other plantlike characteristics — compared to the plantlike flagellate.
