Chapter 7 Notebook Quiz Answers
2. What are the main pathways by which energy from the sun enters photosynthetic organisms and passes from organism to organism and/or back into the environment?
See Figure 7.12 page 118
In this answer you only need to discus the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. What is made in photosynthesis is used in cellular or aerobic respiration and what is produced in aerobic respiration is used in photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis makes glucose and oxygen which are used in aerobic respiration.
Aerobic Respiration makes carbon dioxide and water which is used in photosynthesis.
A discuss of trophic levels and how energy is passed from the sun to primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers makes your answer more complete and a discussion that energy is lost at each trophic level.
Question 3: What are the steps of the light dependent and light independent reactions. What are the raw materials (reactants) needed to start each step, the products made by each step, and where in the plant each step occurs.
You could begin to answer this question with a summary of both steps:
Light Reaction Occurs in Thylakoid Membrane Requires Sunlight and Water Produces ATP, NADPH, and Oxygen
Dark Reaction Occurs in Thylakoid Membrane Requires carbon dioxide, ATP NADPH Produces Glucose
The response could then go into more specific details:
Light Reaction
1. Light hits photosystem II - photons of light energy are absorbed.
2. Water is split into oxygen and hydrogen.
3. Oxygen leaves the plant through the stomata.
4. Hydrogen build up across the membrane.
5. Electrons are passed down the electron transport chain.
6. Light hits photosystem I and drives electrons down the electron transport chain.
7. Hydrogen is passed through ATP ase protein channel forming ATP from ADP.
8. The energy from the Electron transport chain allows NADPH to form from NADP and the free hydrogens that have entered the stroma.
ATP and NADPH are used in the Light Independent Reaction
Light Independent Reaction
1. Carbon Dioxide combines with RuBP to form 2 PGA
2. 2 ATP and 2 NADPH are used to make 2 PGAL
3. PGAL is converted to RuBP using 1 ATP.
4. It takes six turns of the Calvin Benson Cycle to produce 1 glucose molecule.
See Figure 7.12 page 118

Beak of Finch Discussion Questions
Beak of Finch Discussion Solutions
1. Explain how Darwin viewed the finches of the Galapagos when he first found them? Why did he feel this way?
Darwin did not specify which island he found the finches. Collecting finches was part of his hobby and not what he considered research. In his mind he found several variations of one species and not several different species. He belief at this time was that species could not change.
2. On what basis did Peter Boag base his desire to conduct an egg switching experiment on Daphne Major? What did he hope to prove?
He was interested in Environment vs. Genetics. Would the new born hatchlings act more like their surrogate parents or their genetic parents? He wanted to prove that genes control behavior.
3. What happened on Daphne Major after the drought of 1977? How was natural selection being put to use?
Large birds and large beaks were favored as well as male birds due to the abundance of larger seeds that were harder to crack open.
4. Explain the experiment of Dolph Schluster and the stickle back fish? What is he trying to prove? Disprove?
Stickle back fish when found in the same lake can be found at the top of the lake and the bottom of the lake. When there is no competition the separate species can live anywhere in the lake. Schluter has created artificial ponds and lakes to find out if evolution occurs the same with and without competition. Will new traits appear in the presence and absence of competition?
5. Explain what happened on Daphe Major after the flood of 1983, and how natural selection was at work.
Small birds and small birds favored as well as female birds – the exact opposite as before the flood.
6. The Grants have discovered that hybrids are thriving on Daphne Major, explain why.
The Grants believe they are watching evolution at work. After the flood of 1983 the hybrids have been able to successfully breed. This they believe is possible due to the change in the environment caused by the floods.
7. The Grants have many concerns for the finches, but the El Nino is one of the issues at the top of the list. Why?
Drastic changes in weather can speed the rate of evolution. It may change the plant population of an area, change the predator population, or change the prey population. All of these factors may affect the success of certain traits and features in an organism. If the cactus disappears on the island many finch will also disappear.
1. Creation vs. Evolution
The themes of creation are present in the book as the dialogue between Darwin’s time and the Grant’s time is exchanged. Until the research of the Grants there was no hard evidence that evolution can happen. It was viewed as a theory. Darwin himself had a strong belief in creationism until his theory of evolution became more refined and through his studies and research he believed it was possible for organisms to have an ability to fashion new traits based on a change in the environment. The debate continues today between evolutionist and creationist as to the origins of life and the variety of species that exist today. Many scientists who are Christian believe that God created life that was capable of changing through a species DNA.
2. History vs. Present
Historical evidence provided using phrases and quotes from Origin of Species allow the reader to link ideas Darwin developed with ideas that scientist today are now testing and collecting raw data for. Darwin had many ideas and theories that went unexamined through research. However, many of his theories have shown to be correct through the work of the Grants, Boag, and Shulster. The work of Charles Darwin continues to influence modern day evolutionary biologist and researchers in the field of genetics and chemistry
3. Natural vs. Laboratory Environment
The natural environment such as the Galapagos islands is a perfect arena for collecting data because it is pristine and untouched by man and much of the pollution that society contributes to the ecosystem. However, islands and alpine lakes are not always practical and available for research.
Important scientific research is also done in a laboratory environment such as the artificial ponds that are being made by Shulster. Here variables can be controlled and data can be collected on a regular basis.
The question is are the results the same in a natural and laboratory environment – what are the advantages and disadvantages of each setting?

Comments from Jonathan Weiner
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jonathan Weiner will make a special appearance at Washtenaw Community College (4800 Huron River Drive, Ann Arbor Township) as part of the 2006 Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti Reads. He will discuss his book, "The Beak of the Finch: A Story of Evolution in Our Time," which was chosen as the focus of this year's Reads program. It is an examination of the groundbreaking scientific research of scientists Peter and Rosemary Grant, who spent years studying Darwin's finches in the Galapagos Islands and resulted in new ways to look at evolution. A booksigning will follow with copies of the book for sale, courtesy of Barnes & Noble Booksellers. The 2006 Reads theme is Revolutions in Science: the people, theories, explanations and discoveries that challenged our thinking and changed the world
