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.

Background: In class we did a project about m and m’s and there ability to evolve and natural selection. (Yes I know they can’t actually evolve it was just used as a example in class) however I can’t figure out this question. Occasionally a mutant may occur and produce a candy that is misshapen or Pointier or flatter than the rest. Often this proves to be a weakness, but a rare mutation may confer extra M&M durability. Other mutations in M&Ms could occur ( like ones that result in a new color). A mutant un you population represents a new _________. What goes in the blank
Which of the following is true regarding the use of animal models in health research? Primates are the most common animal model used in medical research in Canada Rats fed a high fat diet are a good model to study lifestyle-induced effects on metabolism and health Drosophila cannot be used as a model for human genetics due to extreme differences in emergent properties between drosophila and humans Two of the above are true
MAKE A simple sketch and label characteristics   Choose a human-related organism to study. As you consider strategies to enhance the social value of this organism, think of other desirable attributes that may be added to it. Imagination is a powerful tool, so let it go wild and imagine that you can transfer genes across other animals.  For example: A gene from a firefly has been transferred into tobacco plants so that they may glow in the dark, as demonstrated by geneticists. Tobacco pests are less likely to attack at night because of this.
