The table below shows the amino
acid sequence of the carboxyl-terminal segment of a conserved polypeptide
from four different, but related, species. Each amino acid is represented by
a three-letter abbreviation, and the amino acid residues in the polypeptide
chains are numbered from the amino end to the carboxyl end. Empty cells
indicate no amino acid is present. (a) Assuming that species I is the ancestral
species of the group, explain the most likely genetic change that produced
the polypeptide in species II and the most likely genetic change that
produced the polypeptide in species III. (b) Predict the effects of the
mutation on the structure and function of the resulting protein in species
IV. Justify your prediction. |
Both mitosis and meiosis are forms
of cell division that produce daughter cells containing genetic information from
the parent cell. (a) Describe TWO events that are
common to both mitosis and meiosis that ensure the resulting daughter cells inherit
the appropriate number of chromosomes. (b) The genetic composition of
daughter cells produced by mitosis differs from that of the daughter cells
produced by meiosis. Describe TWO features of the cell
division processes that lead to these differences. |
Smell perception in mammals involves
the interactions of airborne odorant molecules from the environment with receptor
proteins on the olfactory neurons in the nasal cavity. The binding of odorant
molecules to the receptor proteins triggers action potentials in the
olfactory neurons and results in transmission of information to the brain. Mammalian genomes typically have
approximately 1,000 functional odorant-receptor genes, each encoding a unique
odorant receptor. (a) Describe how the signal is
transmitted across the synapse from an activated olfactory sensory neuron to
the interneuron that transmits the information to the brain. (b) Explain how the expression of
a limited number of odorant receptor genes can lead to the perception of
thousands of odors. Use the evidence about the number of odorant receptor
genes to |

I want to try a relatively new feature of Khan academy which
allows me to assign topics and then to follow your progress. I will eventually require everyone to sign-up, but, for now
(at least right now) it is going to be extra credit. I need some kids to sign up for the “class” so that I can
assign some work. (I can’t assign
anything until I have students signed up.) So, if you sign up before 12/22 you
will get extra credit. If you sign up before 1/7/2018 (11:59PM) you will get
extra credit (less, but still some). If you go through the assigned video
lessons you will get more credit. AND, if you email me a review of the process
and of the content you will get even more extra credit. All this extra credit
would be due by 1/7/2018 11:59PM. DrG-HBio Go to khanacademy.org/coaches and type in: EA6CZXTB |

could easily have a group of you observing/doing alongside. Fourth or six

Green-Paper-Policy
In an attempt to reduce the amount of
paper I can misplace
and to reduce the number of trees cut down for my classes I am
instituting the
following policy.
At the end of each marking period (if
there are sufficient
written assignments to warrant this) there will be an extra credit
grade given
to those students who submit their work via email.
Near the end of the marking period I will
search my drg.atm@gmail.com
archive and
assign extra credit points based on a subjective sense of the
percentage of
possible assignments (it isn’t meaningful to submit a take home test or
worksheet via email) that have been submitted via email. (As a consequence of how
this is done, you
MUST sign your complete name in your emails in the body of the email. I
sometimes search by first name, sometimes by last name.)
You can’t lose by submitting via
email. The only caveat
(warning) is that digital submissions are easier to check for
plagiarism.
REMIND -I encourage you to sign up for text/email reminders via Remind.
My "sign in" page for AP Biology 2017-18 https://www.remind.com/join/apbio1718 - enter your phone number.
OR- Either text @apbio1718 to 81010 or email apbio1718@mail.remind.com
(You can sign up for both sms-texts
and email.) Please sign up with your real name if it
asks... Standard text
rates apply. If you use the email option you can leave the subject and
body of
the message blank.
