Natural selection gizmo - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Student Exploration: Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Vocabulary: allele, genotype, Hardy-Weinberg equation, Hardy-Weinberg principle, heterozygous, homozygous, Punnett square Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) Suppose the feather color of a bird is controlled by two alleles, D and d. The D allele results in dark feathers, while the d allele results in lighter feathers. D d D d 1. Suppose two Dd birds mate. What percentages of DD, Dd, and dd offspring would you predict?...

Student Exploration: Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Directions: Follow the instructions to go through the simulation. Respond to the questions and prompts in the orange boxes. Vocabulary : allele, genotype, Hardy-Weinberg equation, Hardy-Weinberg principle, heterozygous, homozygous, incompletely dominant, Punnett square Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) 1. A bird’s feather color is controlled by two alleles , D (dark feathers) and d (lighter feathers). Suppose two...

Student Exploration:Natural Selection Directions: Follow the instructions to go through the simulation. Respond to the questions and prompts in the orange boxes. Vocabulary : biological evolution, camouflage, Industrial Revolution, lichen, morph, natural selection, peppered moth Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo .) The peppered moth ( Biston betularia ) is a common moth found in Europe, Asia, and North America. It is commonly found in two forms, or morphs : a dar...

1. What is fitness? The ability to survive and reproduce 2. What is an allele? A form of a gene or a gene variant. 3. How might a population’s gene pool help increase its fitness in an environment? A certain gene may be very good for its survival which will cause that organism to reproduce and have a better chance at survival. Gizmo Warm-up If natural selection does not favor one trait over another, the frequencies of various alleles in a population will tend to be stable over...

Student Exploration: Natural Selection Vocabulary: biological evolution, camouflage, Industrial Revolution, lichen, morph, natural selection, peppered moth Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) The peppered moth (Biston betularia) is a common moth found in Europe, Asia, and North America. It is commonly found in two forms, or morphs: a dark morph and a light, speckled morph. Birds are a frequent predator of the peppered moth. 1. Which morph do you think would be e...
