Grades are updated, Final is on Wednesday

Grades are updated as of 4PM on Thursday.  If you need to fix things in your notebook you have through Tuesday to turn in revision (sticky note on the front with page #'s)

The final test is on Wednesday (10% of your final semester grade)

pgs 100-101 Bio 2 Review

The Bio 2 review packet will go on page 101 so that it opens like the book instead of against the book.

Click here for a PDF copy (although if you print it, it won't be in cool booklet format)

Your books will be checked today, you have the remainder of the week to work on the review and anything else in your notebook that needs to be fixed.

If you fix something, attach a sticky note with the page #'s on the front.  I will be checking notebooks again on Wednesday.

pg 81 Conclusion questions for allelic frequency lab

Remember this information for the conclusion questions below

NATURAL SELECTION AND ALLELIC FREQUENCY

Evolution can best be described as a change in the number of genes for a trait over time. Natural selection can place pressure on specific phenotypes (brown rabbit or white rabbit). In this activity you will simulate the effects of the eagles preying on the rabbits. In this environment white rabbits (genotype bb) were easiest to spot.

The brown rabbits (BB or Bb) blend in better than the white rabbits, therefore only 25% of the brown rabbits die each generation, whereas 100% of the white rabbits die.

CONCLUSION QUESTIONS 
(USE THESE TO WRITE 2 PARAGRAPHS ON PG 81)

Did either allele disappear? Why or why not?
What does your graph show about allelic frequencies and natural selection? 
What would happen to the allelic frequencies if the number of eagles declined?
What did you learn or find interesting in this lab?
What did you find difficult or hard to understand in this lab?
