Summary Introduction

To suggest: The evolution of archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes regarding the studies which showed that archaea, but not bacteria, has a protein that is functionally and structurally similar to TATA-binding protein.

Introduction: TATA-binding protein is a transcription factor that is thought to be necessary for eukaryotic transcription. This factor binds specifically to TATA box (DNA sequence), which is present 30 bp (base pair) upstream of the starting site of transcription. The branch of science that deals with the scientific study of diversity and evolutionary relationships of organisms is known as systematics.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which knowledge of the similarity regarding TBP affect the classification of archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes by systematists.

Introduction: Systematics is used to construct a cladogram that is an evolutionary tree that depicts the relationship among different species by studying the similarities or differences.

EVOLUTION CONNECTION A typical prokaryotic cell has about3,000 genes in its DNA, while a human cell has almost 21,000genes. About 1,000 of these genes are present in both types ofcells. Based on your understanding of evolution, explain howsuch different organisms could have this same subset of 1,000genes. What sorts of functions might these shared genes have?
Lab 10: Kingdom Animalia Introduction Animals all share some characteristics: 1) Multicellular 2) Heterotrophic 3) Their cells have no cell wall 4) At some time in their life they are motile. There are many phyla within the animal Kingdom, and in this activity, you will explore these phyla by building a dichotomous key that will allow you to consider almost any animal and determine which phylum it belongs to. Part 1: Organizing information for the dichotomous key 1) List the 9 animal phyla of macroscopic (visible) animals: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nemotoda, Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata, and Chordata. 2) Use on-line or library resources of your choice, to gather information about these 9 phyla. a. Start by finding two example species per phylum to help tie into your previous knowledge about animal types. Write down these examples. b. Make a list of characteristics that you could use that would help you tell these 9 phyla apart. The final goal is to build a…
1) Name and give a brief account of the theory that explains the evolution of Eukaryotic cells from Prokaryotic cells.     2)     Explain the reactions that occur to form polysaccharides, using starch as an example.                                                                                                                                     3)     What do enzymes do?            What are their main structural features?             Give an example of a biological enzyme.      4)     Describe the structure of fats and lipids.             Why are some solid at room temperature whereas others, particularly from plants, are liquid?         Briefly describe the structure of an animal cell.              What are the main differences between animal and plant cells?           Briefly outline the steps involved in the synthesis of ATP in eukaryotic cells
