A.P. Evolution Test on Monday

| | Comments (0)

The Evolution Test will cover chapters 22-25.  There is some material on the test from chapters 24 and 25 that we did not cover in class, but most of it is on the material that we focused on.  Go through the labs, activities and homework we have done as well as the chapter quizzes available online.

There will be 65 Multiple Choice questions on Monday and you will take the essay on Tuesday.

You should already know the important topics covered on chapters 22-24.  Here is a list of stuff you should know, understand and be able to differentiate that we have not focused on from chapter 25 and earlier.

  • shared derived characteristic and shared primitive characteristic
  • ingroup and outgroup
  • orthologous and paralogous genes
  • homeotic genes
  • molecular clock
  • extant and exaptation
  • monophyletic, paraphyletic and polyphyletic
  • gradualism model vs. punctuated equilibrium model
  • maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood
  • Neutral theory

The Chapter 25 lecture is attached below:
