Pre-Read Chapter 5 & 18
Chapter 5 has a lot of material from Biology that we will not review, but you may want to refresh.
What we will cover in class: Biodiversity and the 3 ways it can be defined. What are benefits of biodiversity (not
well defined in book) What is a keystone species? (C 6 p166-168) The role of evolution (not the depth of the book)
artificial selection, and natural selection in creating biodiversity.
Key terms: ecosystem diversity, species diversity, genetic diversity, species richness and evenness, evolution, artificial
selection, and natural selection. phylogenies, mico and macro evolution, genes, genotype, phenotype, mutation,
recombination, fitness, genetic drift, bottleneck effect, founder effect, geographic isolation, reproductive isolation,
allopatric speciation, sympatric speciation, range of tolerance, fundamental niche, realized niche, fossils (terms from
biology that you should know that we will not review/____ are terms that are not in AP study guide book)
Chapter 18
Picks up with extinctions. What are classifications of species populations? (data-deficient, threatened, near
threatened, least concern, extinct) What roles do humans play in extinction (5 of them). What are hot spots? (144-145)
How are we preserving biodiversity? Compare: single species vs ecosystem. What are some laws and organizations that
are in place to preserve biodiversity?
Key terms: extinction, background extinction rate, biodiversity hotspot, inbreeding depression, endangered, native,
alien, exotic, invasive, Lacey Act, CITES, red list, Marine Mammal Protection Act, Endangered species act, Convention of
Biological Diversity, edge habitat, biosphere reserves.
