what environmental selection is and how it relates to antibiotic resistance
natural selection without sexual selection; Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. They will then pass this trait to their offspring.
what biological fitness is and be able to identify which organism would be the most biologically fit in an example
reproductive success; one that produces the most fertile offspring
Be able to identify different level of genetic diversity ()
-mutation.
-random mating between organisms.
-random fertilization.
-crossing over (or recombination) between chromatids of homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
what the biological species concept is (14)
a population of individuals whose members can interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
the evolutionary order of animals ()
