PPT-Genetic Change

By C Kohn Agricultural Sciences Waterford WI 1 Species Change The traits of a species are primarily determined by the types of proteins made in its cells All proteins are made from amino acids and different arrangements of amino acids result in different proteins . Natural selection acts on phenotypic variations in populations. Enduring Understanding 1A. Change in genetic makeup of a population over time is evolution.

LO 1.5 The student is able to connect evolutionary changes in a population over time to a change in the environment. . SP 7.1 The Student can connect phenomena and models across spatial and temporal scales.. You can compare dogs of every breed imaginable! . There is an enormous range of characteristics that are the result of . genetic variation. . . The differences among breeds of dogs are so great that someone might think that many of these breeds are different species. . You can compare dogs of every breed imaginable! .
