BIO 240 Week 1 DQ 1 Cells (UOP) FOR MORE
CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com What are
some of the ways cells communicate similar to the
ways we humans communicate with other people or
with an organization? How are they different?

CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Would you
consider a virus living or non-living? Why? How
does this agree or disagree with classification
scheme applied by the scientific community?

BIO 240 Week 1 Photosynthesis and Respiration
Paper (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tut
orial.com Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper
summarizing the events of cellular respiration
and photosynthesis and examine the relationship
between the two. Include the following in your
paper - For photosynthesis, include a summary of
the events in - The Light Dependent Reaction -
The Calvin Cycle (Light Independent Reaction)

BIO 240 Week 2 DQ 1 (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com There is a fierce
competition among individuals within any species,
humans included, to gain access to reproductive
privileges. The fittest a term that signifies
the largest, prettiest, and most sexually
attractive members, succeed in predominantly
mating and having offspring, while the less
attractive ones often do not. What is the role of
such sexual selection from an evolutionary
standpoint?

VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Would two identical
twins growing up in different neighborhood grow
up differently?

BIO 240 Week 3 DNA and Protein Synthesis (UOP)
FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com -
A gene will direct the making of polypeptide
chains, and polypeptide chains form proteins. All
enzymes are proteins. Therefore, how would you
explain carrying a gene for a trait that does not
show up in the offspring? - In order for DNA to
pass genetic information to the next generation,
DNA must replicate successfully. Mistakes in
replication could result in major problems in
heredity.

BIO 240 Week 3 DQ 1 (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Craig Venter made a
new life form (a bacterium) from scratch
essentially from computer database, and a few
bottles of chemicals http//www.csmonitor.com/Sci
ence/2010/0521/J.-Craig-Venter-Institute-creates-f
irst-synthetic-life-form http//www.nytimes.com/20
10/05/21/science/21cell.html If these and other
such DNA-based technologies become widely used,
how might they change the way evolution proceeds,
as compared with the natural evolutionary
mechanisms of the past almost 4 billion years?
11

BIO 240 Week 3 DQ 2 (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Is there danger of
discrimination based on testing for harmful
genes? Would you support cloning of life forms?
How about a human clone? What policies can you
suggest that would prevent or permit such
practices?

BIO 240 Week 3 Learning Team Outline (UOP) FOR
MORE CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Submit
a minimum of one page draft outline for your
Learning Teams projects. Refer to instructions
on final assignment provided under Week 5 details
to assist in your research. Any one team member
may submit this to the Assignment link.

BIO 240 Week 4 DQ 1 (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Consider the human
eye, an exquisitely adapted organ that gives rise
to stereo vision in full color (see, for
instance, The Evolution of Primate Color Vision
by Gerald H. Jacobs and Jeremy Nathans,
Scientific American, April 2009 issue, pp.
56-63). Explain, strictly from within the
framework of Darwinian evolution, how natural
selection crafted such an organ.

BIO 240 Week 4 DQ 2 (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com How do you think we
could trace back the evolution of organs within
our body by hundreds of millions of years from
our reptile ancestors by examining coevolution
patterns and fitness landscapes? Discuss, for
instance, the missing link, Tiktaalik, that has
made headlines around the world (see Your Inner
Fish by Neil Shubin).

BIO 240 Week 4 Natural Selection Paper
(UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT www.bio240tutorial.c
om Write a 1,500- to 1,800-word paper that
describes Darwins mechanism of evolution by
natural selection. Include the following points
in your paper An explanation of Darwins
assumptions and inferences based on his major
observations. An example of how natural
selection may have worked in a population (for
example, moth in New England, drug-resistant
bacteria, giraffes, finches in the Galapagos
Islands, or another species you select) An
explanation of how adaptations help species
survive such as mimicry and camouflage.

BIO 240 Week 5 Human Evolution Paper and
Presentation (UOP) FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.bio240tutorial.com Prepare a 2,000 to
2,500-word paper, with at least five outside
references, in which you examine evolution of our
species as we spread across the world. In your
paper, be sure to include the following items -
The origin and evolution of vertebrates. -
Description of the primate adaptations for living
in trees. - Comparison of the three main groups
of primates, noting examples of each.
