This document discusses sperm capacitation, which prepares sperm to fertilize an egg. It involves physiological changes to the sperm, including changes to its motility and ability to undergo the acrosome reaction. Capacitation involves removal of decapacitation factors from the sperm surface and changes in the sperm membrane and intracellular signaling. Specifically, it involves cholesterol removal from the membrane, increased calcium, pH and cAMP levels, and protein tyrosine phosphorylation within the sperm. These changes prime the sperm for fertilization by allowing the acrosome reaction and fusion with the egg.

- Gametogenesis is the production of gametes (sex cells) via meiosis from germ cells. This involves the formation of haploid egg and sperm cells from diploid precursor cells.
- Eggs undergo a process called oogenesis to form female gametes (ova/eggs). Sperm undergo spermatogenesis to form male gametes. Both involve mitosis, growth, and meiotic maturation.
- Mature eggs contain stored nutrients, proteins, mRNA and other materials necessary to support early embryonic development before the embryo can feed itself. Eggs accumulate these materials during oogenesis.

Splanchnology is the study of the visceral organs like the digestive, urinary, reproductive, and respiratory systems. The body has two main cavities - the dorsal body cavity containing the brain and spinal cord, and the larger ventral body cavity containing most soft organs. The ventral cavity is divided by the diaphragm into the thoracic cavity and abdominopelvic cavity. These cavities contain organs and are lined by serous membranes which lubricate and prevent friction between organs. Major structures in the cavities include the heart, lungs, and blood vessels in the thoracic cavity and digestive organs in the abdominopelvic cavity.
The document discusses artificial insemination, which involves depositing semen into a woman's vagina, cervical canal, or uterus through instruments to induce pregnancy without intercourse. There are three types of artificial insemination: intravaginal, intracervical, and intrauterine. Sperm can be obtained through masturbation, condoms, intercourse, or direct puncture. The two main types are artificial insemination by husband (AIH) using the husband's sperm, and artificial insemination by donor (AID) using donor sperm. Couples seek AIH for fertility issues and AID for genetic diseases, sterility, or blood incompatibility.
A semen analysis measures the amount and quality of semen and sperm to determine fertility. It analyzes semen volume, pH, sperm count, motility, morphology, and vitality. Sperm are produced in the testes and transported through the seminal vesicles and prostate to provide nutrients and protection. A semen analysis is an important first test for infertility, identifying potential issues affecting over 1/3 of couples unable to conceive.
The document outlines the 7 key phases of embryonic development: 1) gametogenesis, 2) fertilization, 3) cleavage, 4) blastulation, 5) gastrulation, 6) neurulation, and 7) organogenesis. It provides details on the processes and cellular changes that occur during each phase, including the formation of germ layers, primitive gut, and organs from the three germ layers. The goal is to transform a single-celled zygote into a multicellular organism with differentiated tissues and organs.
This document discusses differential cell affinity and the differential adhesion hypothesis. It explains that during development, cells show selective affinity for similar cell types over dissimilar types. This is due to cell adhesion molecules that allow cells to stick together. The differential adhesion hypothesis proposes that cells will actively move to create tissue organization based on their differing adhesion strengths - arranging themselves into the most thermodynamically stable pattern. Cells with stronger adhesion to their own type will cluster together, while cells with weaker adhesion between types will sort apart. Changes in gene activity can alter cell adhesion molecules and cause cellular movements to restore equilibrium.

The importance of a laboratory information management system in a research se...ILRI
Presentation by Absolomon Kihara at a training workshop on the principles of laboratory management and equipment operations held at Holetta Agricultural Research Centre, Ethiopia, 21 June 2013.
This document discusses polygenic or quantitative inheritance, where multiple genes each have a small effect on a trait, resulting in continuous variation in phenotypes. Key points:
- Traits like height, weight, eye color are polygenic, with no clear boundaries between types.
- The multiple factor hypothesis proposes that multiple genes, each with small effects, combine to produce quantitative variation in traits.
- Characteristics of polygenic traits include each gene having an additive, cumulative effect and no dominance or epistasis between genes. Environmental factors also influence phenotypic expression. Examples of polygenic traits in humans are skin and eye color.
Biosafety refers to preventing or reducing the creation of biological agents or toxins that could be used as biological weapons.

Various genetics concepts are defined and examples are provided including Mendel's pea plant experiments, dihybrid ratios and sex-linked traits in fruit flies and humans.
The document outlines different concepts in genetics including:
1) Mendel's foundational work in the mid-1800s studying inheritance in pea plants which formed the basis of modern genetics principles.
2) Basic terminology and Mendel's principles including genes, alleles, dominance, segregation, and independent assortment.
3) Examples of inheritance patterns like monohybrid crosses, sex-linked traits, multiple alleles as in blood types, and polygenic traits influencing characteristics like eye and hair color.
4) Various human genetic disorders resulting from chromosomal abnormalities, mutations, and environmental factors interacting with genetics.
Here are the key points from the activities:
- Finches on different islands evolved different beak sizes/shapes suited to food sources
- In drought years, larger beaked finches survived better as they could crack larger seeds
- In wet years, smaller beaked finches thrived as they could access more nectar/smaller seeds
- Over generations, natural selection led to different finch populations on different islands
The gizmo showed how beak characteristics changed with rainfall amounts. It demonstrated
evolution through natural selection based on environmental pressures like food/water availability.
Let me know if any part needs more explanation!
This document provides an overview of Gregor Mendel's experiments with pea plants that laid the foundations for genetics. It discusses how Mendel studied seven traits in pea plants through controlled crosses between pure-breeding lines. His results demonstrated that traits are inherited as discrete units (now called genes or alleles) and showed dominance relationships. Mendel's work established the laws of segregation and independent assortment. Later researchers confirmed Mendel's findings through experiments with pea plants.
Mitosis Cell division and general geneticsAli Safaa97
Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two daughter cells with identical genetic material to the original parent cell. During mitosis, the genetic material (DNA) is replicated and then the pairs of chromosomes are separated and pulled to opposite sides of the cell. When complete, mitosis results in two identical daughter cells containing the same number and type of chromosomes as the original parent cell.
Introductory presentation to goats in general and a variety of breeds an agriculture student would be likely to encounter. Appropriate for a high school agriculture class
1) The document discusses heredity and genetics, including definitions of key terms like species, traits, genes, alleles, and genotypes.
2) It explains that species are groups that can reproduce and have fertile offspring, and examples like dogs and wolves are given. Traits can be inherited or acquired, and come in different types.
3) The role of genes and alleles in determining traits and phenotypes is outlined. Genes are segments of DNA that code for proteins, and are located on chromosomes which come in homologous pairs for humans and other species.
This document discusses inheritance and genetics through three subtopics: variation, what is inheritance, and genetics and society. It begins by defining what a species is and providing examples of species and their varieties. It then discusses Mendel's experiments with pea plants that discovered the basic principles of heredity and inheritance patterns. The document explains key genetics concepts like genes, alleles, dominant and recessive traits, phenotypes, genotypes, and uses Punnett squares and monohybrid crosses to demonstrate inheritance patterns.
The document discusses heredity and genetics in cattle. Key points include:
- Genes located on chromosomes determine hereditary traits such as hair color and milk production. Cattle have 30 pairs of chromosomes.
- Outbreeding is highly recommended to increase heterozygous gene pairs and avoid issues from undesirable recessive genes, while inbreeding can increase homozygous gene pairs and expression of recessives.
- Traits are influenced by many gene pairs on different chromosomes. Some genes are dominant and affect simple traits.
This document provides information about heredity and genetics. It defines key terms like species, traits, genes, alleles, genotype and phenotype. A species is a group of organisms that can reproduce and have fertile offspring. Within a species, individuals vary in traits which make them unique. Traits can be inherited, meaning they are passed down through generations, or acquired during one's lifetime. Genes are segments of DNA that code for specific proteins and are responsible for phenotypes. Individuals have two alleles for each gene, one from each parent, which determine physical traits. The combination of alleles makes someone homozygous or heterozygous for that gene. Understanding an individual's genotype and phenotype provides insight into inherited genetic traits.
The document discusses using genetic techniques like PCR, PCR-RFLP, microsatellites, and gene sequencing to study behavior, species identification, and population sizes in various organisms like parasitoid wasps and grizzly bears. It also examines reproductive behaviors like lekking in buff-breasted sandpipers and monogamy versus polygamy in blue and great tits. Population size and evidence of bottlenecks are investigated using Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium calculations on microsatellite data from Joshua tree populations.
This document provides an overview of basic genetics concepts including:
- Genetics is the study of heredity and traits are characteristics that vary between individuals.
- Genes determine traits and alleles are different versions of genes.
- Gregor Mendel established laws of inheritance through pea plant experiments.
- Dominant and recessive alleles determine phenotypes according to genotypes. Punnett squares can predict offspring genotypes and phenotypes from parental crosses.
- Other inheritance patterns include incomplete dominance, codominance, multiple alleles, and polygenic traits controlled by multiple genes.

It defines sex-linked, sex-limited, and sex-influenced inheritance and provides examples like tortoiseshell cat color. The document also explains that polygenic traits like growth and milk production are influenced by many genes and the environment, while simply-inherited traits like coat color are affected by few genes. Overall, the document covers inheritance patterns and classifications of traits.
This document discusses various principles of inheritance including:
1) Genetics involve randomness but can be predicted through inheritance principles.
2) Traits are inherited in three categories: sex-linked, sex-limited, and sex-influenced.
3) Multiple traits in offspring can be predicted using inheritance ratios of heterozygous parents.
4) Sex-linked traits are expressed differently in males and females due to sex chromosomes.

This document provides an overview of genetics concepts including heredity, variation, character and traits, chromosomes, sex determination, pedigree charts, Mendel's laws of inheritance, and mutation. Some key points:
- Heredity is the transmission of genetically based characters from parents to offspring. Variation refers to differences among individuals of the same species.
- Chromosomes carry genes and determine traits. Sex is determined by X and Y chromosomes.
- Pedigree charts show the pattern of inheritance in a family. Punnett squares predict offspring genotypes from parental crosses.
- Mendel's laws of inheritance include dominance, segregation, and independent assortment observed in his pea plant experiments.
Genetics is the study of heredity and traits that are passed from parents to offspring. A trait is a characteristic like eye color or hair texture that varies between individuals. Genes determine traits by coding for proteins. Gregor Mendel conducted early studies on heredity by breeding pea plants and established that traits are passed in discrete units (alleles) and assort independently. Dominant alleles mask recessive alleles when present, and genotypes describe an organism's allele combination while phenotypes describe observable traits. Punnett squares predict offspring genotypes and phenotypes from parental crosses.
This document summarizes key concepts around the evolution of behavior through natural selection and genetic inheritance. It discusses how behaviors are co-adapted through evolution to maximize survival and reproduction. Behaviors can be culturally transmitted between individuals without genetic changes. Kin selection theory explains how behaviors that help reproduce relatives' genes can also be selected for, if the degree of relatedness and benefits are high enough. Examples of genetic studies of behaviors in insects and vertebrates are provided to show the interaction between genes, development and environment in determining behaviors.

This document discusses several key concepts related to the evolution of behavior through natural selection and genetic inheritance. It summarizes that 1) natural selection shapes behaviors as adaptations to maximize reproductive success, often resulting in behavioral compromises. 2) Cultural transmission can propagate behaviors horizontally without genetic changes. 3) Genes influence behaviors through their effects on development and physiology. Kin selection can favor behaviors that help closely related individuals reproduce.
This document discusses key concepts in genetics including heredity, variation, Mendel's laws of inheritance, and exceptions to Mendelian patterns. It defines important genetic terms like phenotype, genotype, alleles, dominant and recessive. It provides examples of non-Mendelian inheritance patterns like incomplete dominance in flowers and codominance in cattle coat color. Finally, it discusses multiple alleles controlling traits like human blood groups and rabbit coat colors.
Gregor Mendel conducted early experiments in genetics using pea plants. He identified two laws of inheritance: the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment. The law of segregation states that alleles separate during gamete formation such that offspring receive one allele from each parent for each trait. The law of independent assortment states that genes assort independently, so the inheritance of one trait does not influence the inheritance of others. Mendel also described dominant and recessive alleles and used Punnett squares to predict offspring genotypes and phenotypes.
The document discusses heredity and genetics, including definitions of key terms like species, traits, genes, alleles, genotypes and phenotypes. It explains that organisms within a species can vary in traits but share characteristics that allow reproduction, and that inherited traits are passed down through generations while acquired traits develop during an individual's lifetime. Variations in genes and alleles determine an individual's observable traits or phenotype.
This document discusses several patterns of inheritance beyond simple dominant and recessive traits. It describes incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous phenotype is intermediate between the two homozygous phenotypes. Codominance is defined as when both alleles are fully expressed in the heterozygote without blending. Multiple alleles exist for some traits, where more than two alleles determine the phenotype. Sex linkage is explained, where traits are inherited through genes on the X or Y chromosomes. Polygenic traits are influenced by multiple gene pairs and are usually continuous traits like height or skin color that are also affected by environment.
Genetics is the study of heredity and traits that are passed from parents to offspring. A trait is a characteristic like eye color that varies between individuals. Alleles are different versions of genes that determine traits, like brown vs. blue alleles for eye color. Genes are sequences of DNA that code for proteins and determine traits. Gregor Mendel conducted early studies of heredity in pea plants and established that traits are inherited as discrete units and assort independently. Dominant alleles mask recessive alleles when present, and genotypes describe an organism's allele combination while phenotypes describe observable traits. Punnett squares predict offspring genotypes and phenotypes from parental crosses.

The muscular system provides movement through muscles that are either voluntary or involuntary. There are three main types of muscles - skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscles are striated and attached to bones, allowing for movement. They make up the majority of muscle tissue. Smooth muscles are involuntary and found in internal organs and blood vessels. Cardiac muscle is only located in the heart. The document then describes various muscles in the limbs, trunk, neck, and back of different animals. It notes muscles are important for supporting the body and enabling movement.
The cell cycle is required for cell growth and division into two daughter cells. It consists of four main phases: G1 phase for growth and DNA replication preparation; S phase for DNA replication; G2 phase for more growth and mitosis preparation; and M phase for mitosis and cell division. Cells monitor conditions and determine if they will continue through the cycle or exit into quiescence during the G1 and G2 checkpoints. DNA replication occurs in S phase, and chromosomes are separated in mitosis during M phase, resulting in two identical daughter cells that reenter G1 to repeat the cycle.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

2. Standards Addressed: 15.0 Animal Growth and Production 15.3 Reproduction 15.4 Biotechnology – 16.0 Using Scientific Processes to Analyze Data 16.1 Scientific Method 16.2, 16.3, 16.4 Scientific Research 16.6, 16.8 Communicating Results 17.0 Relationships Within Living Systems 17.2 Heredity 18.0 Bioethical Issues 18.3 Animal production
3. Objectives: In a Laboratory Environment Students will be able to: 1- Use the scientific method to hypothesize, predict implement and report conclusions 2 – Illustrate patterns of inheritance using the principles of Mendel’s genetic theory 3 – Demonstrate respectful, and appropriate treatment of lab animals
4. Process: Using Syrian Hamsters students will identify phenotype of animal. Through multi generation breeding the genotype will be determined As genotype becomes established, predictions regarding future generations are made, tested, and results reported
5. Why Use Syrian Hamsters? 1 – A friendly, affordable, easily available animal 2 – Rapid maturation of pups 3 – Easily bred – short estrous cycle – 4 days 4 – Gestation period 16 days 5 – Established coat color, coat type, and coat markings 4 – Monohybrid and dihybrid crosses visible
9. Basic Genetic Information: Hamsters have 44 chromosomes Ovaries carry 21 autosomes and an X gamete Sperm carry 21 autosomes and an X or Y gamete Syrian hamster Karyotype courtesy of Knud Christensen, Ph.D., The Royal Veterinary Agricultural University, Denmark
10. Step 1: figure out the hamster's phenotype, and write a preliminary genotype. A few quick examples. ("_" stands for "unknown.") Banded Longhair Red Eyed Cream Ba_eellpp Satin Cinnamon Tortoiseshell ppSasaToto Dominant Spot Yellow Black male aaDsdsToY Rex Smoke Pearl female dgdgrxrxToTo Chocolate (Sable) Roan bbeeU_ Whwh Recessive Dappled Umbrous Golden rdrdU_
11. Expanding the Genotype More information about the hamster's genotype can be gathered by looking at its parents, siblings and offspring
12. Breeding an animal can provide more data about its genetic make-up. It is especially useful as a tool to confirm suspicions of heterozygosity. For any trait that may be heterozygous, breed to an animal that is homozygous recessive.
13. Appropriate breeding can help sort out confusing colors. For example this helps with the Greys, especially if the Grey is in combination (for instance, in the Grey Sables or Black Eyed Ivories). Breeding to any hamster without grey in its pedigree will give a good indication of the genotype.
14. There are eleven basic colors in Syrians. Ten (excluding Golden, which is the “wild type”) are determined by a single gene pair .
15. It can be hard to determine color because coat types and coat patterns also influence appearance.
16. Golden – wild color combination – where it all started “ Ticking” of coat And, the fur is often different close to the skin, from what is seen on top -
18. Color Genotype Description Golden ++ Rich dark mahogany heavy black ticking OR Light fawny gold Golden is the agouti, or wild code. It must carry all color genes possible, so would look like this: AA BB baba CC DgDg dsds EE FdFd LL lglg PP RdRd RuRu RxRx SS sasa sgsg toto uu whwh
29. Color Tortoiseshell (females only) TotoBaba, TotoBaBa, or TotoDsds sex-linked bi-colored or tricolor animal - a balanced pattern of colored, yellow and white patches (sometimes black) Genotype Description
42. Piebald ss Similar to dominant spot, but has colored patches also on belly
43. Color Tortoiseshell (females only) TotoBaba, TotoBaBa, or TotoDsds sex-linked bi-colored or tricolor animal - a balanced pattern of colored, yellow and white patches (sometimes black) Genotype Description
44. The yellow patches in Tortoiseshell are modified according to base color – Cinnamon becomes honey – Dark Grey becomes pearl – Lilac becomes lilac pearl Remember – this is a sex linked trait – only in females!
45. There are two main breeding techniques - selection and crossing. Selection is the careful choosing of individuals for mating, allowing only the best to become parents of the next generation.
46. Crossing , is the pairing of the selected individuals so that the best offspring possible can be produced.
47. Inbreeding involves crosses of first degree relatives. This is done to concentrate desirable genes. Unfortunately, it will also concentrate undesirable genes so it must be accompanied by rigorous selection and care.
48. Backcross (offspring bred to one of its parents) Do with care and only 1 generation Sibling cross (brother bred to sister – the most unsafe – only unusual circumstances (verify genetics_
49. Linebreeding is the pairing of more distantly related animals. Cousin to cousin – Aunt to nephew, uncle to niece -considered fairly safe
50. Outcrossing is the breeding of totally unrelated animals. Done when 2 exceptional, unrelated animals exist. Very safe.
51. Lethality Lethal genes result in death in utero or Shortly after birth. Lg (Light, or Lethal, Grey) and Ds (Dominant Spot) are lethal in homozygotes. In a monohybrid cross (e.g., Lglg x Lglg) 1/4 of the embryos are likely to be homozygous dominant and will not survive. The litter is then three fourths as large as it would have been and has the remaining genotype (and phenotype) ratio of 2:1. Since the surviving hamsters are healthy, the only disadvantage of these matings is smaller litters.
52. Mating two hamsters that are Roan or White Bellied (both Whwh) gives litters in which 1/4 of the babies can be expected to be Eyeless Whites (WhWh). Eyeless Whites typically have a shortened lifespan of six to twelve months.
