Energy flow
Digestion
Nutrients cycle --> nitrogen cycle
Food chain
Energy pyramid
Food web
Dentition
Traits that relate to feeding strategies
Digestion tract
Dentition
Foods/macromolecule consumption
Building blocks & characteristics of life
Macromolecules
Proteins
Lipids
Carbohydrates
Nucleic Acids
Macromolecule functions relate to characteristics of life (energy, inheritance of DNA)
Dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis
Characteristics of life
All organisms need energy to survive + some sort of energy processing system
How populations change over time
Limiting factors
Tusklessness is an example of a negative selective pressure to decrease the trait of tusks since it helps them survive and not be poached
Selective pressure
Selective advantages
Relates to characteristic of life for evolutionary adaptation
DNA profiling
PCR
Gel electrophoresis
DNA profile
Compare STR loci to match where the animal came from
Conservation efforts
