Anatomy/Evolution Test Topics Dorsal vs. Ventral Anterior vs. Posterior Open Circulatory system vs. Closed Circulatory system Cold Blooded vs. Warm blooded Bilateral Symmetry Body systems- Purpose of the nervous system Purpose of sexual reproduction in the animal kingdom Purpose of the following organs: esophagus, intestines, brain, 3 chambered vs. 4 chambered heart, internal vs. exoskeleton, testes, ovaries, nerve vs. spinal cord, kidney, lungs Taxonomy Phylogeny Classification tools- Cladogram/Dichotomous Keys Physical vs. Behavioral Adaptations Natural selection and Evolution Natural vs. Artificial Selection Species and Speciation Isolation leads to Speciation leads to Biodiversity Genetic change- Recombination and Mutation Homologous structure- common ancestry Vestigial trait- evolution Overproduction, Competition, Variation
