You have been hired as a public relations specialist to give invertebrates a good name. After all, they are much more than just creepy crawly bugs!
Your first task though is to convince yourself that is true. The best way to do that is to start close to home. Find something in your house that is a product obtained directly from an invertebrate or only due to an invertebrate’s actions. Describe the product, its function and utility, as well as any human manufactured alternatives. Be sure to highlight the advantages of obtaining this directly from nature.
Keep in mind, a product can be something you use, wear, eat, or enjoy for its visual appeal.
Use the following tree diagram to answer Questions #8-10.
8) Which of the following two animals
are the most closely related based on the
tree to the left?
a) Pig and camel
b) Hippo and pig
c) Deer and cow
9) CIRCLE on the tree diagram where the
common ancestor between a hippo and a
cow is.

Explain:
Healthy Cell Function Overview→ Briefly describe how a healthy cell usually works: metabolism (ATP production), pH balance, glycogen storage, ion transport, enzymes, etc.
Gene Mutation and Genetics Part→ Focus on the autosomal recessive mutation and explain:
How gene mutation affects the cell.
How autosomal inheritance works.
Compare the normal and mutated gene sequences simply. → Talk about possible consequences of a faulty hydrolytic enzyme.

However, a SNP in the position shown in gray (right) would prevent cleavage at this site by EcoRI One of the SNPs in B. rapa is found within the Park14 locus and can be detected by RFLP analysis. The CT polymorphism is found in the intron of the Bra013780 gene found on Chromosome 1. The Park14 allele with the "C" in the SNP has two EcoRI sites and thus is cleaved twice by EcoRI If there is a "T" in that SNP, one of the EcoRI sites is altered, so the Park14 allele with the T in the SNP has only one EcoRI site (Fig. 5-3).
