B.1.46
Recognize and describe that a great diversity of
species increases the chance that at least some living things will survive in
the face of large changes in the environment.

B.1.28 Illustrate that the sorting and recombination of genes in
sexual reproduction results in a great variety of possible gene combinations
from the offspring of any two parents. Recognize that genetic variation can
occur from such processes as crossing over, jumping genes, and deletion and
duplication of genes. |
|
Evolution |
|
B.1.36 Trace the relationship between environmental changes and
changes in the gene pool, such as genetic drift and isolation of
sub-populations. |

Ecology |
|
B.1.40 Understand and explain that like many complex systems,
ecosystems tend to have cyclic fluctuations around a state of rough
equilibrium. However, also understand that ecosystems can always change with
climate changes or when one or more new species appear as a result of
migration or local evolution. |
|
B.1.43 Understand that and describe how organisms are influenced
by a particular combination of living and nonliving components of the
environment. |
|
B.1.45 Recognize that and describe how the physical or chemical
environment may influence the rate, extent, and nature of the way organisms
develop within ecosystems. |
