Big Idea 1
The Process of Evolution Drives the Diversity
and Unity of Life
Change in the genetic makeup
of a population over time is
evolution.
Organisms are linked by lines of
descent from common ancestry.
Life continues to evolve within a
changing environment.
The origin of living systems is
explained by natural processes.
Hardy-Weinberg Equations
Probabilities
Big Idea 2
Biological Systems Utilize Free Energy and Molecular Building Blocks
to Grow, Reproduce and Maintain Dynamic Homeostasis
Growth, reproduction & maintenance of the organization of living systems
require free energy & matter.
Growth, reproduction & dynamic homeostasis require that cells create & maintain
internal environments that are different from their external environments.
Organisms use feedback mechanisms to regulate growth & reproduction & to maintain
dynamic homeostasis.
Growth & dynamic homeostasis f a biological system
are influenced by changes in the system’s environment..
Many biological processes involved in growth,
reproduction & dynamic homeostasis include temporal
regulation & coordination.

Big Idea 3
Living Systems Store, Retrieve, Transmit and Respond to Information
Essential to Life Processes
Heritable information provides for continuity of life.
Expression of genetic information involves cellular & molecular
mechanisms.
The processing of genetic information is imperfect & is a source of genetic
variation.
Cells communicate by generating, transmitting
& receiving chemical signals.
Transmission of information results in changes
within and between biological systems.
Chi square
Gene Linkage
Big Idea 4
Biological Systems Interact and These Systems and Their Interactions
Possess Complex Properties
Interactions within biological systems lead to complex properties.
Competition & cooperation are important aspects of biological systems.
Naturally occurring diversity among & between components within biological
systems affect interactions within the systems.
In a typical Mendelian monohybrid cross, two
heterozygotes produce 400 offspring. How many
individuals are expected to have the recessive
phenotype?
100; this is a 3:1 phenotypic ratio
In this genetic cross, Aa x aa, there are 348
offspring. How many individuals are expected to
have the dominant phenotype?
174; this is a 1:1 ratio, so 50% are expected to
Have the dominant phenotype
In a dihybrid cross between two heterozygotes,
if you have 200 offspring, how many should
show both dominant phenotypes?
112
This is a 9:3:3:1 ratio, with 9/16 showing
both dominant phenotypes.
9/16 = .56 = 56%
56% of 200 is 112
The allele for the hair pattern called
“widow’s peak” is dominant over the allele
for no “widow’s peak”. In a population of
100 individuals, 64 show the dominant
phenotype. What is the frequency of the
recessive allele?
.6
64 show the dominant phenotype,
So 36 show the recessive phenotype.
Since this is a population of 100, 36%
Show the recessive phenotype
.36 = q2
.6 = q
In a certain population of deer on Fire Island,
NY, the allele for a black spot behind the eye is
dominant to the allele for no spot. After the
hunting season, the percent of deer with no
black spot is 15% and the population is in
Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. What is the
frequency for the allele for having no black
spot, to the hundredths?
15% = .15 = q2
q = .39
The ability to taste PTC is due to a single dominant
allele (A). You sampled 215 individuals in biology
and determined that 150 could taste PTC and 65
could not. How many individuals in this population
show the following genotype? AA, Aa, aa
65/216 = .3 = q2
q = .55
p = .45
(.45)(.45) = .2 = 20%
20% x 215 = 43 AA
2(.45)(.55) = .495 = 50%
50% x 215 = 107 Aa
In geckos, spots are dominant to the solid color.
If the frequency In a population of 700 geckos,
what percentage of the geckos would have
spots, if the frequency of the recessive allele
is 0.2, and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg
equilibrium?
96%
q= .2
p= .8
Homozygous dominant (p2) = .64 (64%)
Heterozygotes (2pq) = .32 (32%)
A Cellular Biologist wants to double check that statement that cells spend
90 percent of their time in Interphase as compared to the various stages of
Mitosis. She grows some Allium in her laboratory. She then takes one of the
plants, cuts off the root tips, stains the DNA in the cells so as to be able to
see the stages of the cell cycle. Her hypothesis states “If cells spend 90
percent of their time in Interphase, then she should be able to calculate the
relative time existing between Interphase and Mitosis based upon the cells
counted in her specimen.” She counted 1000 cells from her preserved
specimen under the microscope. Her data are shown below. Calculate the
X2 to the nearest hundredth.

Forty flies were put into a choice chamber with two chambers. In one
chamber there was a cotton ball soak with vinegar. The other chamber
had nothing. After 20 minutes the number of flies were counted in both
chambers. This was repeated four more times. Perform a chi-square
analysis to determine if the difference between in the number of flies
found in the two chambers is significant.

What is the population standard
deviation for the numbers: 75, 83, 96,
100, 121 and 125?
Need help with standard deviations?
The formula is easy: it is the square root of the
Variance. So now you ask, "What is the
Variance?“The Variance is defined as: The average
of the squared differences from the Mean.
To calculate the variance follow these steps:
1. Work out the Mean (the simple average of the numbers)
2. Then for each number: subtract the Mean and square the result
(the squared difference).
3. Then work out the average of those squared differences.
To measure the population density of monarch butterflies occupying
a particular park, 100 butterflies are captured, marked with a small dot
on a wing and then released. The next day, another 100 butterflies
are captured, including the recapture of 20 marked butterflies. One
would estimate the population to be:
a. 200
b. 500
c. 1,000
d. 10,000
(100 x 100)/ 20 = 500

What is the water potential of a cell with a
solute potential of -0.67 MPa and a
pressure potential of 0.43 MPa?
-.24MPa
-0.67 + 0.43
You measure the total
water potential of a cell
and find it to be -0.24 MPa.
If the pressure potential of
the same cell is 0.46 MPa,
what is the solute potential
of that cell?
Since water potential is
equal to the solute potential +
the pressure potential,
-0.24 MPa = 0.46 MPa + X.
Solve for x= -0.7

An experiment determined that when a protein unfolds to its
denatured (D) state from the original folded (F) state, the
change in Enthalpy is ΔH = H(D) – H(F) = 46,000 joules/mol.
Also the change in Entropy is ΔS = S(D) – S(F) = 178 joules/mol.
At a temperature of 20⁰C, calculate the change in Free Energy
ΔG, in j/mol, when the protein unfolds from its folded state.
The correct answer is -6154 joules/mol.
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS
ΔG = (46,000 joules/mol) – 293 K (178 joules /mol)
ΔG = 46,000 joules/mol – 52,154 joules/mol = -6154

Geneticists working in an agriculture lab wanted
to develop a crop that combines the disease
resistance of rye grain with the high crop
yielding capacity of wheat grain. Rye grain has a
diploid chromosome number (2n) of 14 and
wheat grain has a diploid chromosome number
of 42. The resulting grain is called triticale and is
an alloploidy plant. How many chromosomes are
found in the pollen grain of triticale?
Alloploidy results when two different plant species combine
their diploid genome to make new and unique species. That
would mean that this particular species would have 56
chromosomes. The cells in a pollen grain of would be haploid
so the resulting number is 28.
A study was conducted on the island of Daphne Major in the Galapagos Islands by Peter
and Rosemary Grant. This study lasted over 20 year s. The study investigated how the
type of seeds available to the finches impacted the depth of their beaks. In years when
rain and water were plentiful, the available seeds were smaller and easy to crack. In years
experiencing drought, fewer seeds were produced, and the finches had to eat the larger,
leftover seeds produced from previous years. During years of drought, birds with a
greater beak depth had a selective advantage.
Use the data above to determine the
increase in the mean of the depth of
the beak between the wet and dry
years. Give your answer to the nearest
hundredth of a millimeter.
