PRAXIS CRAM - BIOLOGY 5236 LATEST UPDATE GRADED A+ Pros of stem cell research Curing genetic diseases Growing skin for burn victims Growing new organs Cons of stem cell research Harvesting embryonic stem cells kills the embryo, what constitutes a viable embryo? Cons of genetically modified foods Man should not interfere, allergens, modifications not contained-could pass in to wild species Cons of cloning - reduced gene pool - animals less healthy - worries that humans could ...

Natural Selection the process that results in adaptation of a population to the biotic and abiotic environments. Polygenic controlled by more than one pair of alleles located at different gene loci Directional Selection occurs when an extreme phenotype is favored and the distribution curve shifts in that direction. Example: resistance to antibiotics and pesticides Stabilizing Selection Occurs when an intermediate phenotype is favored. Individuals near the average are fav...

HSC Biology Module 5 Reproduction Reproductive success The ability to produce fertile offspring that survive to reproductive maturity and produce offspring of their own. Biological fitness the measure of an individual's reproductive success. It is calculated as the average contribution to the gene pool made by a certain genotype within a population and the relative likelihood that these alleles will be represented in future generation. Sexual reproduction It involves the meet...
