Difference between Evolution and Plant defense against herbivory

Evolution vs. Plant defense against herbivory

Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. Plant defense against herbivory or host-plant resistance (HPR) describes a range of adaptations evolved by plants which improve their survival and reproduction by reducing the impact of herbivores.

Similarities between Evolution and Plant defense against herbivory

Evolution and Plant defense against herbivory have 20 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adaptation, Amino acid, Bird, Coevolution, Cytoplasm, Enzyme, Fitness (biology), Fungus, Gene, Habitat, Handicap principle, Mammal, Medication, Pathogen, Pesticide, Photosynthesis, Predation, Reproduction, Rutgers University, Speciation.

Adaptation

In biology, adaptation has three related meanings.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Bird

Birds, also known as Aves, are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton.

Coevolution

In biology, coevolution occurs when two or more species reciprocally affect each other's evolution.

Fitness (biology)

Fitness (often denoted w or ω in population genetics models) is the quantitative representation of natural and sexual selection within evolutionary biology.

Fungus

A fungus (plural: fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms.

Gene

In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

Habitat

In ecology, a habitat is the type of natural environment in which a particular species of organism lives.

Handicap principle

The handicap principle is a hypothesis originally proposed in 1975 by Israeli biologist Amotz Zahavi to explain how evolution may lead to "honest" or reliable signaling between animals which have an obvious motivation to bluff or deceive each other.

Mammal

Mammals are the vertebrates within the class Mammalia (from Latin mamma "breast"), a clade of endothermic amniotes distinguished from reptiles (including birds) by the possession of a neocortex (a region of the brain), hair, three middle ear bones, and mammary glands.

Medication

A medication (also referred to as medicine, pharmaceutical drug, or simply drug) is a drug used to diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent disease.

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.

Pesticide

Pesticides are substances that are meant to control pests, including weeds.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities (energy transformation).

Predation

Predation is a biological interaction where a predator (a hunting animal) kills and eats its prey (the organism that is attacked).

Evolution and Predation · Plant defense against herbivory and Predation · See more »

Reproduction

Reproduction (or procreation or breeding) is the biological process by which new individual organisms – "offspring" – are produced from their "parents".

Rutgers University

Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, commonly referred to as Rutgers University, Rutgers, or RU, is an American public research university and is the largest institution of higher education in New Jersey.
