Theories of Evolution

Evolution: is the change over time in inherited traits found in populations of living organisms.


Creationism: is the religious belief that humanity, life, the Earth, and the universe are the creation of a supernatural being.


Natural Selection: is the process by which biologic traits become more or less common in a population due to consistent effects upon the survival or reproduction of their bearers. It is a key mechanism of evolution. Because of the genetic variation within a population, some individuals would survive and reproduce more successfully than others. But, if the genetic traits are common, it allows for more of the population to survive and can reproduce and evolve more effectively


Mutation: are the changes in a genomic sequence.

Abortion

What is Abortion?


Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy usually done by removing of a fetus from the uterus. An abortion occurs usually if pregnancy complications occur. There are times when an abortion is used for preventing preserve health of the pregnant female. An estimated amount of 42 million abortions are performed legal and officially, with 20 million of those abortions that are done in bad medical environments.

Was this a learning opportunity or just a task?

I believe this assignment was a learning opportunity in many ways. We got knowledge in using the smart board some online programs and other video editing programs. We had many problems in doing this project such as connecting the smart board on the computer. We learned a lot about mitosis and I understood more from are video who showed the way of how mitosis works.

What are some ways of improving this assignment?

Improving the assignment would be easy if we could have an approval to do that. The problem was getting administrator rights on our computer some softwares that could be installed. 

Genetic Traits

Dominant and Recessive genetic traits.
The word dominant means stronger. While Dominant and Recessive traits mean human visible genetic traits. They both have connection to the phenotype.


Recessive and Domainant Traits:

Eyes, Hair Color

Observable Genetic Traits in Food


Chromosomes: Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes which add up to 46 chromosomes.

The jack jumper female ant has 2 chromosomes per cell, while the male has 1 chromosome per cell.
Wheat has 42 chromosomes per cell.
