Why might Pasteur's experiment be inconclusive? - Answer The swan-necked flask broth may not support cell growth, or the broth was poisoned. Experiment did not confirm hypothesis that all cells come from pre-existing cells Why are replicates important in experiments? - Answer To ensure that results were not achieved by random chance What is the definition of a replicate? - Answer Unit that shares a common thing (4 mice in one cage = 1 replicate) What does the law of succession suggest?...

Evolution as a process Microevolution: changes in allele frequencies. Observing change at the level of the gene Evolution as a pattern Macroevolution: descent with modification. Proven with fossil records, anatomical comparison 3 Requirements for Natural Selection Variation, heritability, and differences in fitness (survival/reproduction). ONLY EVOLUTIONARY FORCE THAT LEADS TO ADAPTATION Evidence for Evolution 1.Direct observation of evolutionary change 2.Homology 3.Fossil Record Homology Si...
