Symbiotic Relationship: Mutualism

Symbiotic Relationship: Mutualism

Mutualism is when two different species work together and they are both benefiting from the relationship. They were both part of their environment, so they adapted to each others environment.





Reflection:
I learned that the two organism have to adapt to each others environment. I thought they were already adapted because they found each other somehow and how would they find each other if they were adapted to the environment.

    I liked the starting sentence because it drew me into what you were talking about. I think you could've added more the whole blog though since there wasn't that much. The reflection was good but there also wasn't that much information there either.

Anaerobic Energy Production - MORGAN BANKS

ANAEROBIC ENERGY PRODUCTION  Anaerobic Energy Production is one form of Cellular Respiration  This form requiers no oxygen  Is used for a fast burst of energy Occurs mostly in prokaryotes cells  Fermentation 1- lactic acid (makes muscles sore)  2- Alocholic REFLECTION - Anaerobic Production has no oxygen, therefore many of the things we do, do not involve anaerobic production! It involves the aerobic energy production. This is not only a good review for you but for me as well on how to justify the two.  http://slideplayer.com/slide/9078035/ MORE INFO: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Aerobic_Respiration_vs_Anaerobic_Respiration VIDEO/QUIZ:  http://study.com/academy/lesson/anaerobic-exercise-definition-benefits-examples.html

Genetic Variation: Mutations

Image
What is a mutation? A mutation is any change in the DNA sequence.  There are three types of mutations: * addition: One or more nucleotide base pairs are inserted into a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation)  *deletion: The removal of one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation) *substitution: A mutation that exchanges one or more bases for another (also called point mutation) How do they occur & why? Mutations for randomly, but different mutations occur different ways.  Most of the time a mutation comes from radiation (so like the sun, X-rays, tanning salons, etc). Some mutations can be genetic though, like autism. Autism is caused when theres an extra chromosome. Another common mutation would be cancer. Cancer occurs when cells uncontrollably grow, and don't die.  Can it be prevented?  Unfortunately, mutations are random. The best way to prevent them is to protect yoursel...
