1. Population genetics examines changes in the _______ of certain traits in _________ from generation to generation.
This is the basis for ______ change in phenotype frequencies through generations is a definition for evolution.
2. Sources of variation include ______ (a change in the DNA code), _________(jumping genes), ________ (two words) of chromosomes during Metaphase I of meiosis, _________(two words) between homologous chromosomes during Prophase I of meiosis, and union of unique ______. A population would be a group of organisms of the same species that have ________ access. Mutations change alleles. ________brings in genes from neighboring populations as well as keeping genes from each population flowing between them. ________ shows a change in gene frequencies due to chance and often isolation. ________ (two words) is the most common process for changing gene frequencies from one generation to the next. This will show ________ which is a change in allele frequency within a population.

The integumentary system is an essential organ system, separating the external environment from the internal environment of the human body. As such, this system protects the body from the invasion of harmful substances, helping to maintain homeostasis. There are many medical procedures that affect the integumentary system, including hair transplants, lipoplasty, rhytidectomy, chemical peels, and collagen injections.
Pick an integumentary procedure, from the list above or from another procedure of your choice, and describe it. Describe the reasons an individual would undergo the procedure and any possible complications. Explain the direct and indirect effects the procedure has on the integumentary system.

The human body is very complex and seeks to maintain a constant internal environment. This state of dynamic equilibrium is called homeostasis. Some diseases such as diabetes can impact the body's ability to maintain homeostasis. To maintain a relatively constant internal environment, the human body uses negative and positive feedback.
1. As a medical professional, how would you explain the role negative and positive feedback plays in maintaining homeostasis to a newly diagnosed diabetic patient?

1. The krill Euphausia pacifica, feeding on the diatoms, increased in dry weight by an average of 1.6 mg per month, while consuming an average of 5.0 mg dry weight of prey. This krill assimilates its prey with 80% efficiency. Calculate the gross growth efficiency and the net growth efficiency for this krill.
2. In general, growth efficiency for marine fish is much higher than that in terrestrial mammals. Explain reasons for that.
