  2. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Entire Course (UOP) BIO 240 Week 1 Comparing Cell Structures Worksheet (UOP) • BIO 240 Week 1 Comparing Cell Structures Worksheet • BIO 240 Week 1 Photosynthesis and Respiration Paper • BIO 240 Week 3 Learning Team Outline • BIO 240 Week 3 DNA and Protein Synthesis • Complete the following charts comparing prokaryotes and eukaryotes, plant and animal cells, and cells and viruses.

  3. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 1 DQ 1 Cells (UOP) BIO 240 Week 1 DQ 2 Virus (UOP) • What are some of the ways cells communicate similar to the ways we humans communicate with other people or with an organization? How are they different? • Would you consider a virus living or non-living? Why? How does this agree or disagree with classification scheme applied by the scientific community?

  4. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 1 Photosynthesis and Respiration Paper BIO 240 Week 2 DQ 1 (UOP) • For cellular respiration, include a summary of the events in:- Glycolysis- Krebs Citric Acid Cycle- The Electron Transport Chain- Examine the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.- Write the general formula for photosynthesis.- Write the general formula for cellular respiration. • There is a fierce competition among individuals within any species, humans included, to gain access to reproductive privileges. The “fittest” – a term that signifies the largest, prettiest, and most sexually attractive members, succeed in predominantly mating and having offspring, while the less attractive ones often do not. What is the role of such sexual selection from an evolutionary standpoint?

  5. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 2 DQ 2 (UOP) BIO 240 Week 3 DNA and Protein Synthesis (UOP) • Would two identical twins growing up in different neighborhood grow up differently? • Describe the structure of DNA and the steps of protein synthesis.- Describe the relationships between the following terms:- DNA- Chromatin material- Gene- Chromosome

  6. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 3 DQ 1 (UOP) BIO 240 Week 3 DQ 2 (UOP) • If these and other such DNA-based technologies become widely used, how might they change the way evolution proceeds, as compared with the natural evolutionary mechanisms of the past almost 4 billion years? • Is there danger of discrimination based on testing for “harmful” genes? Would you support cloning of life forms? How about a human clone? What policies can you suggest that would prevent or permit such practices?

  7. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 3 Learning Team Outline (UOP) BIO 240 Week 4 DQ 1 (UOP) • Submit a minimum of one page draft outline for your Learning Team’s projects. Refer to instructions on final assignment provided under Week 5 details to assist in your research. Any one team member may submit this to the Assignment link. • Consider the human eye, an exquisitely adapted organ that gives rise to stereo vision in full color (see, for instance, “The Evolution of Primate Color Vision” by Gerald H. Jacobs and Jeremy Nathans, Scientific American, April 2009 issue, pp. 56-63).Explain, strictly from within the framework of Darwinian evolution, how natural selection “crafted” such an organ.

  8. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 4 DQ 2 (UOP) BIO 240 Week 4 Natural Selection Paper (UOP) • How do you think we could trace back the evolution of organs within our body by hundreds of millions of years – from our reptile ancestors – by examining coevolution patterns and fitness landscapes?Discuss, for instance, the “missing link,” Tiktaalik, that has made headlines around the world (see “Your Inner Fish” by Neil Shubin). • An explanation of Darwin’s assumptions and inferences based on his major observations.· An example of how natural selection may have worked in a population (for example, moth in New England, drug-resistant bacteria, giraffes, finches in the Galapagos Islands, or another species you select)

  9. BIO 240 UOP Course Material BIO 240 Week 5 Human Evolution Paper and Presentation (UOP) • Description of the primate adaptations for living in trees.- Comparison of the three main groups of primates, noting examples of each.- An explanation as to why it is incorrect to consider: (a) chimpanzees as our ancestors, (b) human evolution as a ladder, and (c) human traits evolved together.
