6. Read the following experiment & answer the questions
(if an answer doesn’t exist, make improvements).
Stewie wanted to see which detergent would make his favorite teddy bear (Rupert) the cleanest. He believed that “Nature’s Best”, an environmentally friendly product would work better than “Clean & Bright” which was the leading brand. First he stained the left arm of Rupert with a mixture of dirt, grape juice and Crayola markers. He then repeated the same procedure on Rupert’s right arm. Stewie then measured out the same amount of water and he proceeded to handwash the stains in a small basin scrubbing for 8 minutes using 10mLs of “Nature’s Best” on the left arm. The whole process was repeated using 10mLs “Clean & Bright” on the right arm.

2) In each population, many more individuals are produced each generation than the environment can support.
3) Some individuals possess adaptations that enable them to survive and reproduce more than other individuals.
4) An increasing number of individuals in succeeding generations possess the adaptation.
5) The result of natural selection is a population adapted to its local environment.
![Page 48: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
34. Explain the parts of Darwin's theory of Evolution by natural selection.
Natural Selection Stated Simply . . .
1) Variation within a population
2) Struggle for existence3) Survival of the fittest4) Descent with modification5) Change over time
![Page 49: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
35. Explain in detail how Darwin would explain the evolution of
giraffes from a population of ancestors that had short necks.
• Within a population of giraffes, some have a longer neck than others (variation).
• Giraffes are always competing for food (struggle for existence).
• Those giraffes with a longer neck will be able to reach more food (survival of the fittest).
• They will survive to reproduce and pass the beneficial trait on to their offspring (descent with modification).
• Over time, the population of giraffes will have more members with longer necks (change over time).
![Page 50: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
36. Explain Lamarck's theory of evolution.Include use/disuse and acquired characteristics.
• The more an organism uses a structure, the more developed it will become. For example, a giraffe will continually stretch its neck to reach the leaves in the upper canopy of the trees. Over its lifetime, the giraffe will ACQUIRE a longer neck. The giraffe can pass this acquired trait onto its offspring. We now know this is not correct! ACQUIRED TRAITS ARE NOT INHERITED!
![Page 51: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
37. Describe 5 evidences that support evolution.
1. fossils – Paleontologists can compare fossils from the past to organisms living today.
2. homologous structures – Organisms have very similar structures that have been modified for different functions.
3. vestigial structures – A remnant (left over) structure that no longer serves a purpose but was useful in an ancestral stage.
4. embryology – Organisms that are very different (i.e. a fish and a human) still have very similar stages of embryonic (pre–birth) stages of development.
5. DNA – The more recently two species share a common ancestor, the more similar their DNA will be. Organisms that do not share a recent common ancestor, will have a greater % difference in their DNA

45. Who were Hershey and Chase?Explain their experiment and what it proved.
• Worked with bacteriophages (viruses), which are made of only DNA and protein
• Alternated between using radioactive DNA or radioactive protein• Sulfur isotope (35S) – only found in protein coat• Phosphorous isotope (32P) – only found in DNA
• Looked to see if bacteria became radioactive when radioactive DNA or when radioactive protein was inserted by the virus
• The bacteria only became radioactive when radioactive DNA was used
• Conclusion – DNA is what is inserted into the bacteria, not the protein!

50. What is DNA replication? Explain the process of DNA replication? What enzymes are involved in this process?
• DNA Replication – When DNA makes a copy of itself.• The two strands of DNA are separated by enzymes called
helicases that break hydrogen bonds as they move along the strand.
• Enzymes called DNA polymerases bind to the chains and assemble new strands of DNA by attaching a new nucleotide to the complementary strand.
• The end result is two pieces of DNA that are each half new and half old DNA.
• Errors are repaired by other enzymes that “proofread” the new DNA.

![Page 71: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
53. What occurs during translation?Explain the process.
Translation – The second part of protein synthesis takes place at the ribosome. The mRNA that was made in transcription travels out of the nucleus and to a ribosome on the ER or in the cytoplasm.
Amino acids that are freely floating in the cytoplasm are transported to the ribosome by the tRNAs. Part of the tRNA contains a region of three bases called the anticodon. Only the anticodon that matches the mRNA codon will be able to donate an amino acid so that the DNA’s message is translated into a protein correctly.
![Page 72: Semester 1 Final Exam Review 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813af8550346895da385eb/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
