Study Notes
Genetics
- The primary purpose of using a Punnett square is to predict the probability of different genotypes and phenotypes in offspring.
- The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation in the absence of disturbing factors.
Evolution
- The process of evolution is responsible for the diversity of living things on Earth.
- An example of a homologous structure related to evolution is not specified in the text, but homologous structures are features that are shared between different species because they evolved from a common ancestor.
Human Anatomy
- The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body.
- The tricuspid valve is responsible for preventing the backflow of blood from the right ventricle to the right atrium.
- The system responsible for producing blood cells and storing minerals is the skeletal system.
Organisms
- An example of a eukaryotic organism is not specified in the text, but eukaryotic organisms are characterized by having cells with a true nucleus.
Nervous System
- The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements.
- The autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary processes such as heart rate and digestion.
Population Genetics
- Genetic drift has a greater effect on small populations than on large populations.
