Chapter 1, Problem 10IMT
For each statement, identify which major theme is evident (the relationship of structure to function, information flow, pathways that transform energy and matter, interactions within biological systems, or evolution) and explain how the statement relates to the theme. If necessary, review the theme descriptions in this chapter.
10. By comparing genes between green sea turtles and humans, insight can be gained into how those genes encode specific physical traits.

- . Structure and function is a central theme to the study of biology. Each major group of organisms has evolved its own body part “tool kit" – a collection of structures that have evolved in ways that make specific functions possible. From capturing food to digesting it, and from reproducing to breathing, organisms use structures that have evolved into different forms as species have adapted to life in different environments. The structure of wings, for example enable birds and insects to fly. The structures of legs enable horses to gallop and kangaroos to hop. a. Think about your own teeth. What kinds of foods do you think human teeth are suited for? b. List at least three ways the structure of human teeth serves the function of eating these food materials. c. Now, finally apply the theme of structure and function to something you're very familiar with - your hands. List out all the ways you can think of that the structure of your hands serve the function of your hands.arrow_forwardBioinformatics is the science of using computational methods (specialized software) to decipher the biological meaning of information contained within an organismal system. If you have to identify a gene, for example from the fruit fly, that is of interest to you, and you would like to know whether the human genome contains a homolog (related gene) of the fruit fly gene, one tool you could use is a program called Group of answer choices RefSeq (species reference sequence) Excel BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) GenBankarrow_forwardWhy should changing the genome of human embryos ( human germline gene editing) not be allowed?

The result was important advances in the basic sciences as well as medicine itself in Europe during this period (15th through the 18th century) that would make possible the prevention and cure of diseases. Define the Scientific Method and discuss how it relates to advances in medicine ((hint: microscopy, anatomy, chemistry and the study of specific diseases).arrow_forward
