What is a megabase (Mb)? correct answers 1 million bases Is there generally a difference in the amounts of DNA when comparing the genome sizes of viruses --> prokaryotes --> eukaryotes? How does this comparison relate to complexity of these organisms? Be careful. correct answers viruses < prokaryotes < eukaryotes genome sizes does not correlate with complexity, just because an organism has a bigger genome size does not make it more complex. Eukaryotes can differ dramatically...

Biological Productivity - the rate of generation of biomass in an ecosystem; western margins of continents have high prosuctivity and the Artic has the most because of high levels of upwelling and downwelling bc there is no thermocline Photosynthesis formula - 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight ---> C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 Photosynthesis - Inputs: Carbon Dioxide, water, sunlightOutputs: Glucose, oxygen Euphotic Zone - Upper layer of a body of water through which sunlight can penetrate and support photosynt...

Monophyletic Group - Answer-includes all the descendants of a common ancestor, and its considered a natural grouping of organisms based on a shared ancestry. Paraphyletic Group - Answer-some (not all) of descendants of a common ancestor Polyphyletic Group - Answer-organisms from distinct lineages based on shared characters, but no common ancestor Homologies - Answer-similarities based on shared ancestry Analogies - Answer-similarities based on independent adaptations Synapomorphies - Answ...
