Containing a chromosome number that is an exact multiple of the haploid chromosome number. Euploidy A polyploid cell or organism whose chromosome number is an exact multiple of the basic number of the species from which it originated
Evolution The origin of organisms by modification of previously existing organisms. 2. Darwin defined this term as "descent with modification." It is the change in a lineage of populations between generations. In general terms, biological evolution is the process of change by which new species develop from preexisting species over time; in genetic terms, evolution can be defined as any change in the frequency of alleles in populations of organisms from generation to generation. 3. Genetic changes within a genealogical lineage producing speciation.
Evolutionary classification Method of classification using both cladistic and phenetic classificatory principles. To be exact, it permits paraphyletic groups (which are allowed in phenetic but not in cladistic classification) and monophyletic groups (which are allowed in both cladistic and phenetic classification) but excludes polyphyletic groups (which are banned from cladistic classification but permitted in phenetic classification). Evolutionarily conserved See: conserved sequence. Ewald, Paul Professor of biology at Amherst College, specializing in hummingbird and flower coevolution and the evolution of infectious diseases. His research on disease focuses on the evolutionary effects of various public health interventions.	Your Ad Here
Ex-AFP Expanded alpha feto protein test. A screening test which measures analytes in maternal blood to determine the likelihood of a particular fetal anomaly. Currently, the test screens for neural tube defects (NTDs)/ventral wall defects, trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) and trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome). Originally, the test measured only alpha feto protein (AFP). It was expanded to measure human chorionic gonadotropan (HCG) and unconjugated estriol (uE3) to make it more sensitive to the probable presence of the trisomies Excision repair Repair of damaged DNA by removal of the damaged segment of DNA and its replacement with a newly synthesized correct segment. Exogenous DNA DNA originating outside an organism that has been introducted into the organism
