Lecture 5 Next, some more definitions: Primitive Character = Plesiomorphy A character which is in the state shared by the common ancestor of the group. Derived Character = Apomorphy A character in a new state, not the primitive one. Shared Character: A character shared by all the members of the group.Shared Derived Character = Synapomorphy A character which is in a new state and shared by all the member of the group.Unique Derived Character = Autapomorphy A character found only in that taxon.Is a synapomorphy when discussed at the level of the members of a taxon.hared Derived Character = Synapomorphy A character which is in a new state and shared by all the member of the group. Unique Derived Character = Autapomorphy A character found only in that taxon. Is a synapomorphy when discussed at the level of the members of a taxon.

Allele Allele, also called allelomorph, any one of two or more genes that may occur alternatively at a given site (locus) on a chromosome. Alleles may occur in pairs, or there may be multiple alleles affecting the expression (phenotype) of a particular trait.

Autapomorphy An autapomorphy at a given taxonomic level may therefore also be a synapomorphy at a less-inclusive level. The autapomorphic species concept is one of many methods that scientists might use to define and distinguish species from one another.

Evidence of Evolution: Homology 1 a synapomorphy is a shared, derived character. 2  The more recently two species diverged from a common ancestor, the more synapomorphies they will share. 3  Unique synapomorphies found only in a single group provide strong evidence for the common ancestry of members of that group.

Infant and toddler health Still, infant growth tends to follow a fairly predictable path. Consider these general guidelines for infant growth in the first year: From birth to age 6 months, a baby may grow 1/2 to 1 inch (about 1.5 to 2.5 centimeters) a month and gain 5 to 7 ounces (about 140 to 200 grams) a week. Expect your baby to double his or her birth weight by about age 5 months.

Acromegaly Acromegaly (hypersomatotropism) is an endocrine disorder characterized by progestin-induced hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH) by mammary hyperplasia, with resultant overgrowth of the soft tissue, bone, and viscera. In humans and cats, acromegaly is commonly caused by pituitary adenomas producing GH.cromegaly (hypersomatotropism) is an endocrine disorder characterized by progestin-induced hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH) by mammary hyperplasia, with resultant overgrowth of the soft tissue, bone, and viscera.

- Desomorphine (dihydrodesoxymorphine, former brand name Permonid, street name krokodil) is a derivative of morphine with powerful, fast-acting opioid effects, such as sedation and analgesia.ts melting point is 189 °C. It has a pKa of 9.69. Desomorphine comes in four isoforms, A, B, C, and D and the latter two appear to be the more researched and used.

Incomplete metamorphosis Incomplete metamorphosis. Incomplete metamorphosis is a type of metamorphosis in which an insect hatches from an egg and then goes through several nymphal stages. Each nymphal stage looks like a small version of the adult but getting slightly bigger with age. At the final nymphal stage the insect then moults into the adult form.

Hemihyperplasia (Formerly Hemihypertrophy) Hemihyperplasia, formerly called hemihypertrophy, is a rare disorder in which one side of the body grows more than other, causing asymmetry. In a normal cell, there is a mechanism that turns off growth once the cell reaches a certain size. However, in hemihypertrophy, the cells on one side aren’t able to stop growing.

Anthropomorphism Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human form or other characteristics to beings other than humans, particularly deities and animals. People attribute human-like mental states, for example, to God and non-human animals.ersonification is the related attribution of human form and characteristics to abstract concepts such as nations and natural forces likes seasons and the weather. Both have ancient roots as storytelling and artistic devices. Most cultures have traditional fables with anthropomorphized animals as characters.

Allotropy Allotropy or allotropism (from Greek ἄλλος (allos) , meaning other, and τρόπος (tropos) , meaning manner, form) is the property of some chemical elements to exist in two or more different forms, in the same physical state, known as allotropes of these elements.or some elements, allotropes have different molecular formulae which can persist in different phases – for example, two allotropes of oxygen (dioxygen, O 2, and ozone, O 3), can both exist in the solid, liquid and gaseous states.
