Document Summary
This learning cycle opens the course by introducing the biggest idea in biology: descent with modification from a common ancestor, i. e. , evolution. This cycle begins with a class exploring the life and death consequences of evolution, using. Human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) as a case study to illustrate natural selection and common ancestry. This will be followed by your independent study of the components of the theory of evolution in mindtap. Finally, we will apply and explore these concepts in an active class focused on evolution as a theory, evolution as a fact, and why evolution is true: prepare for lecture 2. Read chapter sections 23. 1, 23. 3, and 23. 4 from the text, with special attention to pg. Whole life phylogeny, graphical depiction of evolutionary history, common ancestor. Viruses do not belong to the tree, because they are not living (they cannot reproduce by themselves/ own metabolism) viruses also evolve. Cellular organism lost independent metabolism? (can"t have metabolism)
