The mechanisms of evolution that we have learned contributed to the diversity oforganisms we have today. We can see these organisms everywhere, even not physically butwe learned about them on TV, books, social media, and others. We come to appreciate themand be amazed by their structures, mechanisms of eating, survival and many more. We alsolearned that we, humans, can be a contributory factor on lessening their diversity potentialsand even their survival through hunting, destroying and relocating their habitats. As a memberof the community you are living in now and with the remaining diversity of organisms presentin your place, identify organisms you think are nearing extinction/endangered or have lowdiversity. Afterwards, write the reasons for this if you know, or possible reasons if not. Lastly,present a plan on how the community can work together in preserving and encouraging morevariation in these organisms in the near future. You can ask help from the elders for theirinsights and knowledge regarding this. Place your answers on a clean sheet of paper and youcan be creative on your presentation with the available resources that you have and on yourcapability. Be guided by the given rubric below.

Endangered species are any species that is at risk of extinction because of sudden rapid decrease in…

Within six months of effectively using methicillin to treatS. aureus infections in a community, all new S. aureus infectionswere caused by MRSA. How can this best be explained?(A) A patient must have become infected with MRSA fromanother community.(B) In response to the drug, S. aureus began making drugresistant versions of the protein targeted by the drug.(C) Some drug-resistant bacteria were present at the startof treatment, and natural selection increased theirfrequency.(D) S. aureus evolved to resist vaccines
Perhaps 98 percent to 99 percent of all species that have ever existed areextinct. Nearly all went extinct long before humans arrived on the scene. Whyshould we be concerned about the extinction of organisms today?
2)Life on eath started 4.6 billion years ago 4-5 thousand years old the same age as the first prokaryotes 65 million years old 3) which of the following stement decribes what all menbers of population share? They are geographically isolated from one another They are members of the same species They have identical genes They are temporally isolated from one another 4)During their early stages of development the embryos of reptiles birds and mammals look very similar.this suggest that bird and mamals are no longer undergoing evolution have undergone parallel evolution live in the same types of environments have a common ancestor
The fact that a prokaryote has the ability to make a new protein that is placed in the cell membrane of the mesosome is important to the process of evolution because this represents a) the mutation of a gene, b) new DNA producing a new genetic variation, c) r RNA using a new type of m RNA, d) the species having a greater degree of genetic variability, e) all are true

https://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/news/110301_pcbresistantcod (ARTICLE LINK) QUESTIONS: 1. Review the process of natural selection. Use the steps to explain how PCB resistance became so common among tomcod in the Hudson. Be sure to include the terms mutation, fitness, selective pressure, and adaptation in your explanation. 2. In this blog post, the author describes the tomcod as "a quick learner" because of the population's adaptation to PCBs. Is "learning" an accurate way to describe the change in the Hudson River tomcod population? Why or why not? 3. The data shown on the map above support the hypothesis that natural selection for PCB resistance has occurred among tomcod in the Hudson. What sort of evidence regarding gene frequencies in different populations would argue against this hypothesis (i.e., imagine what the scientists would have observed in this study if natural selection on the AHR gene had not occurred among Hudson River tomcod)? 4. Why is it not accurate to…
During a study session about evolution, one of your fellow students remarked “The giraffe stretched its neck while reaching for higher leaves; its offspring inherited longer necks as a result.” Which statement is MOST likely to be helpful in correcting this student’s misconception? Why? * No answer Disuse of an organ may lead to its eventual disappearance. Spontaneous mutations can result in the appearance of new traits. Only favorable adaptations have survival value. Characteristics acquired during an organism’s life are generally not passed on through genes.
Why, in the evolution of eukaryotes, might ithave been advantageous for separate organismsto become united into a single organism? Canyou describe analogous, more recently evolved,examples of intimate symbioses that function asa single integrated organism?
In terms of classification of organisms, it can be said that the living things on Earth are very A. dangerous B. deceptive C. developed D. diverse. The next lower level of classification, immediately following phylum is A. kingdom B. order C. class D. species. The next higher level of classification, immediately following family is A. species B. genus C. class D. order. Human beings are called Homo sapies; here, “Homo” represents A. genus B. species C. class D. kingdom. Organisms belonging to the same species usually interbreed with one another. Exceptions to this can be found in some A. reptiles B. mammals C. plants D. vertebrates
We have looked at what the fossil record can tell us about the amazing History of Life on Earth. We've examined the evidence for an early origin for life in the sea, 3800 million years, and investigated how life invaded life about 500 million years. We've also discussed the subsequent boom in life that massively increased biodiversity but also noted how the History of Life is frequently punctuated by mass extinctions. Today we stand on the threshold of a new mass extinction event. The biodiversity that we take for granted and that sustains humans is threatened to a degree only rarely seen in 4500 million years of Earth History. NOW TO CONCLUDE, ANSWER THE QUESTION. 1. ARE WE ON THE BRINK OF A MASS EXTINCTION? WHAT WOULD BE THE CONSEQUENCES FOR SOCIETY OF LOSING HALF OF ALL SPECIES BY 2100? ARE THERE ACTIONS THAT WE CAN TAKE AS INDIVIDUALS AND AS SOCIETY TO HELP PROTECT LIFE ON EARTH?
The term Anthropocene implies that we were the major force of nature prior to 10,000 years ago. our global impact has accelerated greatly during the past couple of centuries. humans have impacted the earth at a planetary scale so severe that we can consider this a new geological epoch. millions of years from now the record of human life will be eradicated. there are more humans than bacteria.
