***To serve as a guide. Not everything on the exam is on the review sheet. ***
Protists:
Slide Identification
Euglena, Volvox, Amoeba
Paramecium
Paramecium fission
Paramecium conjugation
How do each of the organisms above feed? Reproduce?
What structure is responsible for their locomotion?
Identify all the cells structures on the slide.
What is a daughter colony and what does it look like?
What is a tsetse fly?
African Sleeping Sickness?
What is the difference between the Macronucleus and the Micronuclei in the Paramecium?
What is osmoregulation and what organelle is responsible for this?
What is a stigma?
What is the difference between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic?
What is a symbiotic relationship and list and describe examples?
What is phagocytosis?
Taxonomy and Conservation:
Define Species Diversity, Conservation Biology, Biodiversity, Species Richness, Species Evenness
Calculate Simpson’s Diversity of a given data set.
Be able to calculate when given a data set.
Be able to explain your results.
Example:
Simpson’s Diversity Index δs = 1/ΣPi²
Calculate for each site.
S=total number of species
N=total number of individuals
Example:
Species Abundance Relative Pi²
Name (i) (ni) Abundance (Pi)
Wood Frog 60 60/97=0.6185 0.3825
Leopard Frog 25 25/97=0.2577 0.0664
Bull Frog 12 12/97= 0.1237 0.0153
S=3 N = 97 0.4642
1/0.4642 = 2.15
Calculate Jaccard Coefficient of Community Similarity of a given data set.
Be able to calculate when given a data set.
Be able to explain your results.
