NATURE UNBOUND LESSON 2 –REPRODUCTION & ADAPTATION Conservation Mr. Dieckhoff

BOBWHITE QUAIL Why is it important to understand quail reproduction when trying to increase quail populations in Missouri? https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=YRc-ojn. Md-Y

ADAPTATIONS Definition: � Examples: 1. 2. 3. Prickly Pear – dense roots soak up rain, sponge tissue store water for long periods of time Collared Lizards – can run 15 miles per hour upright on hind legs: https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=np 5 F 9 p. JGBt 0 Lichen Grasshoppers – camouflage as lichen on rocks

WHAT ARE THE ADAPTATIONS OF THE FOLLOWING ORGANISMS:

REPRODUCTION Definition: � Asexual – Binary Fission – Budding – Parthenogenesis – Vegetative – � Sexual � Both –

REPRODUCTION Video on Bee Reproduction: https: //www. you tube. com/watch ? v=w. U 8 p. Mswh n. Vs Video on Quail Sexual Reproduction: 1. https: //www. youtube. co m/watch? v=9 z. MJU 0 X 7 b R 8 & 2. https: //www. youtube. co m/watch? v=t 1 h. KKxb. Vuq o

GUESS THESE ORGANISMS'’ METHOD OF REPRODUCTION:

DIFFERENCES OF ASEXUAL & SEXUAL REPRODUCTION

SEXUAL REPRODUCTION – SELFINCOMPATIBLE (CROSS POLLINATE) Definition: � Example – Mead’s Milkweed (pg 20) & Paw Tree

GENETIC HOMOGENEITY Definition: � Example – Missouri turkey populations 60 years ago or French Grapes/Wine Industry in the 1800 s

GENETIC VARIATION Mutation – Recombination –

DIFFERENTIAL REPRODUCTION Definition: � Example – Greater Prairie Chicken Which of the males would have a better time attracting a female? Due to loss of habitat, these started to inbreed in Missouri. We have started to translocate (taking individuals from thriving populations and releasing them to struggling populations) from Kansas
