My AP Biology Thoughts
Unit 5 Heredity
Welcome to My AP Biology Thoughts podcast, my name is Nikki Evich and I am your host for episode #103 called Unit 5 Heredity Environmental Effect on Phenotype. Today we will be discussing how the environment can alter phenotypes.
Segment 1: Introduction to Environmental Effect on Phenotype
- Phenotype is determined by genotype
- Genotype and environment work together to determine phenotype
- temperature, oxygen levels, humidity, light cycles, and the presence of mutagens can all impact which of an animal's genes are expressed, which ultimately affects the animal's phenotype
- These can turn on and off genes
Segment 2: More About Environmental Effect on Phenotype
- Fur color
- These rabbits and cats have a mutant allele for the coat color gene that is white
- The enzyme encoded by the gene is inactive at temperatures above about 35 degrees
- The extremities are cooler than the main body (around 25 degrees), so the fur on these regions is dark.
Segment 3: Connection to the Course
- Environmental pressures drive diversity in ecosystems
- Phenotypic diversity is caused by not only genetics, but the environment as well
- A higher diversity in ecosystems allows populations to be better suited for sudden changes to their ecosystem
