Modes of selection
1) stabilizing selection 2) directional selection 3) diversifying selection |
1) trait becomes more common, genetic diversity decreases
2) trait is becoming favored, allele frequency is shifting in one direction 3) an extreme characteristic occurs, seperates a population into 2 species |
|
Patterns of speciation
1) anogenesis 2) cladogensis |
1) linear transformation into new species
2) spliting of a species into 2 species |
|
Speciation
1) Allopatric 2)sympatric 3)parapatric 4)peripatric |
1) barrier forms
2)genetic polymorphism (many types of alles) in same location 3) new niche entered but no barrier forms 4) new niche entered and barrier forms |
|
Adaptive radiation
1) extinction 2) colonization 3) innovation |
1) removal of a population
2) new niche entered 3) new trait adapted |
|
why have animals become domesticated?
|
1) food/clothing
2) transport/ labour 3) companionship/leisure 4)status/currency |
|
what predisposes animals to domestication?
|
1) short flight distance
2)limited agility 3)live in groups 4)adaptive to environments 5)trainable 6)sociable 7)often mate 8) precocious young 9) good parents |
|
what are the types of hierachy
|
1)linear
2)bidirectional 3)traingular 4)complex |
|
What is a sarcomere?
|
Basic unit of a muscle
it is the part between the 2 Z disks |
|
How do you work out work and power of a muscle?
|
Work= forcexchange in distance
power= change in work/change in time |
|
1)Parrallel fibers do more...
2) penate fibers do more.... |
1) work
2)force |
|
What is the composition of bone?
|
65% mineral (hydroxyapetite)
30% organic material (collagen type 1) osteoblasts osteoclasts osteocyts osteons- functional unit |
|
types of bone:
1) lamellar 2) woven |
1) regularly arranged, strong and forms slowly
2) irregularly arranges, weak, quick growing, forms after a fracture |
|
1) periosteum
2) endosteum |
1)outside of bone, 2 layers, osteogenic, site of nerves and blood supply
2) inside of bone, 1 layer, osteogenic and osteolytic |
|
What is the composition of a synovial joint?
|
articular cartilage- pretective and lubracative
synovial fluid- proveds nutrients, protective and lubracative menisci- protection |
|
What are the 7 types of synovial joints?
|
1) Planar
2) Pivot 3) Hinge 4) Condylar 5) Ellipsoidal 6) Saddle 7) Ball and socket |
|
What loads do bone resist?
|
compression
shear tension bendin torsion |
|
How do bones resist loads?
|
hydroxapetite-provides stiffness
collagen- provides toughness arrangement of osteons deflects cracks |
|
what loads do cartilage resist?
|
shear
compression tension |
|
how does cartilage resist loads?
|
synovial capsule- under load fluid squeezed out
glycosaminoglycans- provide lubrication and resist compression superficial, transitional and deep zone |
|
how do you work out stress and strain?
|
Stress=force/area
strain=(L-Lo)/Lo |
|
How is a long bone formed?
|
1) perichondrium lays down bone on cartilage model at diaphysis
2) cavitation of cartilage model occurs at primary ossification centers. allowing blood vessels to enter cartilage is then replaced by bone (proliferation, hyertrophy, calcification) |
|
what hormonal and nutritional factors affect bone?
1)calcitonin and parathroid hormone 2)insulin, growth horomone, thyroxine 3)oestrogen |
absobtion of calcium and phophate depnds on calitriol hormone which is only present in the presence of vitamin D.
1) regulate calcium metabolism 2)bone growth 3)growth plate closure and osteoblast activity |
|
What are the events at a neuromuscular junction?
|
1) action potential propogates down axon
2)depolarisation of pre-synaptic mebrane causes voltage gated calcium channels to open-calcium then diffuse into presynaptic cleft 3)synaptic vessicle move and fuse with presynaptic mebrane releasing ACH into synaptic cleft 4) ACH binds with receptors on post synaptic membrane 5) ligand gated channels open Na ions move into muscle cell causing depolarisation of the motor end plate (End plate potential) 6)action potential propogates |
|
What is excitation-contraction coupling?
|
1)action potential propogates into T-tubule system
2)depolarisation of T-tubule causes Ca channels to open between SR and myoplasm 3)Ca releases from SR 4)Ca then binds to troponin C |
|
Whats the composition of a muscle fiber?
1)thick filament 2)thin filament |
1)mysoin with 2 heads and a tail
2) 2 chains of actin molecules containg proteins- troponin and tropomyosin. troponins bound to tropomysoin and actin |
|
types of contraction
1)isometric 2)eccentric 3)concentric |
1) no length change
2) increase in muscle fiber length 3)decrease in muscle fiber length |
|
What are the events of a muscle contraction?
|
1)Ca binds to troponin
2)ca acts on tropomysoin exposing binding site 3)mysoin heads bind to actin releasing ADP 4)a power stroke occurs 5)myosin and ATP bind releasing mysoin head |
|
What are the muscle fiber types?
1)type 1 2)type ll a 3)type ll b |
