Biology Quarter 4 Review
What is evolution? A change in the heritable characteristics, or alleles, of a species from generation to generation.

Evidence of Evolution?
Fossil Records: Evidence that life is changing over time. pre existing organisms to current organism we have. They gradually grow and develop
Layers on the ground: The lower the level on the ground, the simpler the bone structure. Meaning that the older the animals, the simpler their bone structure were. They developed over time
Embryological Development: different animals/species show strong similarities, this suggests a common ancestor
Selective Breeding (Artificial Selection): Scientists breed specific domesticated animals and plants in order to create new breeds.
Homologous Structures: organisms from very different species show structures that carry similarities. Ex. five-fingered limbs in a human

Cell Respiration
What is cell respiration? a process that generates most of the energy in the cell, takes food and uses it to create ATP; a chemical that the cell uses for energy; usually uses oxygen

Organic Compounds = compounds made of carbon atoms, extracted from living things.

O2 is produced in photosynthesis, along with Energy in the form of ATP #
what is photosynthesis: sunlight is converted to chemical energy. The production of organic compounds using light energy, which is converted to chemical energy as ATP
-
While Plants make Energy and O2 using Sun energy, Humans use O2 in order to make CO2
The more sunlight available in the biome, the more photosynthesis can be done, the more energy required and more life can exist.
Animals change and do evolution in order to perform photosynthesis. Plants changed and adapted to their environment, especially if they are in biomes that recieve less sunlight
The biomes adapt and change so that they can continue to use energy. The animals also adapt in order to be able to get energy from other plants
