In biology, a phylum (division when referring to plants) is a taxonomic ranking that consists of organisms that share a unique set of characteristics. For plants and animals, as well as other organisms that do not fall into the two categories, the ranking (phylum) generally comes third in ...
What are lethal alleles in the gene pool? Why do gene pools only apply to populations not species? What represents the alleles in a gene pool? What does deme mean in biology (genes/mating)? What is meant, genetically, by population structure? What is an Evolutionarily Significant Unit? How...
Why does gene flow decrease variation? What does deme mean in biology (genes/mating)? What do genes determine? Define gene therapy. Is gene flow an evolutionary mechanism? How are genetic drift and gene flow different? What is meant by diluting the gene pool?
What does it mean to be organized in developmental biology? What's the difference between the law of independent assortment and the law of segregation? What is genetic variability? What causes genetic variability? What do chromosomes control?
Achievement: The psychometric term for measuring something that a student has learned, such as 9th grade biology curriculum knowledge, rather than an innate construct such as intelligence of conscientiousness. Aptitude: A construct that is measured which is innate, usually in a cognitive context. For...
What does point mutation mean? A point mutation involves a change in the DNA base sequence that involves only one nucleotide. The ATCG sequence in DNA provides a code for protein synthesis. Therefore, its alteration can cause abnormalities in protein structure. What are the 3 types of point mu...

“In our minds, it was this nice, clean experiment,” Burton said. “We have this lockdown. We have the emptying out of people and then we can see what the animals did. “But in reality, we saw huge variation.” Human activity drops up to 100 times lower ...
What is comparative developmental biology? What have been the three major changes in human evolution? What are the fixed alleles in the human species? What is the difference between natural selection and evolution? What does evolution mean?
What does it mean to say that a gene is 'expressed'? What's the major difference between genetic drift and genetic variation? The two definitions seem to have a similar meaning. Why is genetic mutation random? What does clone mean in biology?
