Binomial nomenclature 2 name system for classifying life forms Taxonomy classification of life forms Catastrophism (diluvial theory) earths landscape is a result of violent cataclysmic events Uniformitarianism earth was shape by slow constant process still around today. Transmutation change of one species to another Reproductive success number of offspring individual produces and rears to reproductive age Selective pressures factors in the environment that influence reproductive success Fitness a measure of relative reproductive success (among species) DNA contains genetic code Genome entire genetic makeup of organism Biological continuity idea that organisms are related through common ancestry ***Biological determination inaccurate association of traits such as intelligence and skin color Eugenics philosophy of race improvement, controlling race relations Polytypic species composed of population that differ in the expression of one or more traits ***Polymorphisms loci with more than 1 allele (creates polytypic) Slash and burn agriculture cutting down large swathes of forest to farm Lactase persistence ability to drink milk beyond childhood Population genetics study in frequency of alleles, genotypes, etc. of one population Gene pool total complement of genes shared by the reproductive members of population Breeding Isolates geographic isolation of a population Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium math expressing predicted distribution of alleles in population Homeostasis balance within biological system Stress any factor that disrupts homeostasis Acclimatization physiological response to changes in environment Neural tube anatomical structure that develops to form the brain and spinal chord Spina Bifida arch of vertebrae fails to fuse and form protective barrier around spinal chord Vasodilatation expansion of blood vessels near surface of skin Vasoconstriction constriction of blood vessels near surface of skin Hypoxia lack of oxygen Vectors Agents that transmit disease Endemic continuously present in a population (disease) Zoonotic disease thats transmitted from animal to human Pathogens any agents that infect a host and cause disease Pandemic infectious disease epidemic that spreads rapidly through a large region Virulence measure of severity of infectious disease Creation Myths myths that explained how we got here Age of Exploration 1400s to late 1600s.

Origin of Species 1859 Dynamic world Human Paleontology studying human fossil remains Boucher de Perthes first real archeologist. Keep detailed diaries. John Ray created genus and species classifications Carlos Linnaeaus standardized john rays work and added class and order to basic taxonomy Jean-Baptist Lamarck Use-disuse theory. Similar to natural selection but genetically incorrect. ***Georges Cuvier championed catastrophism and fixity of species. Thomas Malthus wrote paper and population growth and inherent competition. Directly inspired Darwin and Wallace. ***Charles Lyell theory of uniformitarianism Charles Darwin wrote origin of species, popularized natural selection Alfred Wallace independently also developed natural selection
