HEREDITY
GENETIC VARIATION
Diploid individual: each chromosome has a partner, homologous chromosomes, resemble each other in size, shape, and hereditary information, each homolog is from a different parent
Independent Assortment: during metaphase 1 (orientation of bivalents is random), during metaphase 2 (orientation of sister chromatids is random)
Crossing Over: during prophase 1, synaptonemal complex forms, mixes the genes present in homologous chromosomes, results in new combinations of the parental cells
Sexual Reproduction: new combination of alleles from each parent, promotes heterozyosity, has advantages
MENDELIAN GENETICS
3 Principles : Dominance, segregation, independent assortment
Principle of Dominance: each individual has a unique genotype, genotype is made up of alleles, phenotypes determined by these alleles
Principle of Segregation: alleles are segregated, separated from one another during meiosis, each gamete contains only one allele for each gene, offspring inherit 2 alleles for a gene, 2 members of a gene pair separate from each other, each gamete has an equal chance to inherit either one of the genes
Monohybrid Cross: Punnett square, visual representation of the offspring inheritance patterns, monohybrid is a cross between 2 homozygous parents with different alleles
Principle of Independent Assortment: gene pairs that are not related (homologs) segregate independently, gene pairs that are not linked segregate independently, evidence provided from dihybrid cross

COMMUNITIES
Population Demography
Population size over time: exponential growth(J curve, unlimited resources) , logistic growth(S curve, has a carrying capacity)
r=intristic growth rate, N=population size, K=carrying capacity, dN/dt = population change over time

Species Interactions
factors affecting interactions include: abiotic environment, biotic interactions that occur between species
