Explain the ‘biological species concept’, and distinguish between and give examples of i) pre- and post-zygotic reproductive barriers; ii) allopatric and sympatric speciation (e.g, polyploid speciation).
[
BIOL 1010
]
Interpret phylogenies, and use phylogenies to test hypotheses about evolution (e.g. adaptation, speciation etc)
[
BIOL 2040
]
Explain the basic mechanisms of speciation.
[
BIOL 2040
]
Research and recall the primary literature related to invertebrate evolution, the fossil record, taxonomy, and body plans
[
BIOL 3301
]
Compare and describe Linnaean system of classification and evolutionary phylogenetics
[
BIOL 3301
]
Comprehend the complexity of homology relationships under a variety of different molecular evolutionary processes.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Develop basic understanding of molecular phylogenetics
[
BIOL 3301
]
Identify the major environmental and biological changes that lead to the evolution of metazoans focusing on the Ediacaran and the Cambrian periods
[
BIOL 3301
]
Know mechanisms for functional divergence at the molecular level that span a wide range of biological complexity. Understand how specific models of adaptive evolution explain real examples of functional divergence.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Know terminology and concepts related to metazoan body plans, classification, and evolution
[
BIOL 3301
]
Understand how molecular evolutionary processes give rise to patterns of genetic diversity that we observe in the natural world, and how to use those patterns to make inferences about different processes.
[
BIOL 3046
]
Understand the importance of molecular evolution in the post-genomic era, and be able to explain this to non-specialists.
