Evolution: rate of evolution CfE Advanced Higher Biology Unit 2: Organisms and Evolution SQA mandatory key information Where selection pressures are high, the rate of evolution can be rapid. The rate of evolution can be increased by factors such as shorter generation times, warmer environments, the...
Evolution Evolution- change in allele frequency in a population over time (decent with modification) Population- Group of individuals of a single species that occupy the same general area Allele- an alternative version of a gene Gene- a discrete unit of hereditary information consisting of a specif...
Accordingly, they can modulate gene functions in a relatively short time and are considered as an evolutionary driving force [12, 13]. They constitute over 45% of the human genome and are categorized into two classes. Class I TEs, known as retrotransposons, require reverse transcription for ...
At a secondary hierarchical level, non-neuronal cells are organized according to their cell class identity (for example, astrocytes, ependymal cells, erythrocytes and immune cells), in agreement with their molecular phenotype (Fig. 1c). By contrast, the organization of neuronal types primarily refle...

organs, such as leaves and roots, evolved multiple times independently over the course of land plant evolution. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the evolution of the land plant body plan by combining evidence of the fossil record, phylogenetics, and developmental biology. ...
Provided that barcodes can be integrated within the interior of stable nanoparticles, and those would not expose or exchange nucleic acid barcodes with each other, the strategy could also be applied to polyplexes or other class of nanomaterials. 3. Optimizing for various macromolecular cargos ...
Living Organisms and Fossils Darwin collected the preserved remains of ancient organisms, called fossils. Fossil: Petrified (Turned to stone) organic material Some of those fossils resembled organisms that were still alive today. Fossils The Galapagos Island The smallest, lowest islands were hot, dry...
Rise and Fall The rise and fall of major groups of organisms have shaped the history of life Rise and fall rates are often related to speciation and extinction rates There can be a rise in a new group of species when the amount of births are greater than those lost to extinction ...
