Iteroparous Species that reproduce multiple times during their lives (ex: humans, dogs, Semelparous Species that reproduce only once in their life, but may produce MANY offspring during that one, Iteroparity A survivorship pattern related to reproductive patterns; often typical of organisms whose survival chances increase once they reach maturity, Semelparity A survivorship pattern related to reproductive patterns; often typical of organisms with type 3 survivorship, Phylogeny a synonym for ...

Phylogeny - Answer-Classification of organisms according to evolutionary relationships. Taxonomy - Answer-Evolutionary classification Linnaean system of classification (taxonomy) - Answer-Domain> Kingdom> Phylum> Class> Order> Family> Genus> Species (Did King Phillip Come Over For Grandma's Soup) [ex. Homo sapien](italicized) Phylogeny relationships - Answer-Basal Group: Branch from oldest common ancestor, no other branch from species. Sister Taxa: Share common ance...

CHAPTER 3 NEUROSCIENCE CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the key methods that scientists use to learn about brain anatomy and functioning. • Neuroscientists examine autopsy tissue and patients with localized brain damage to learn about brain anatomy and brain function. • EEGs and neuroimaging, such as PET scans and fMRI, allow scientists to study brain function in the living brain. 2. Describe the two major types of cells in the nervous system and describe the prima...
