Selective breeding This dog is often termed, "Max quality, Minature size". Name this breed. Brittany Briefly explain the difference between a subspecies and a breed. A subspecies occurs by natural selection and is usually limited geographically, while a breed occurs by artificial selection (by humans) and is not limited geographically. What is one of the three general groups in the Working group and give a brief example of it. Guard dogs, Rottweilers can be protective of both their homes and their owners and will alert their owners of something they don't like by barking until they are told it is O.K. (ex. the boy that walked in to class late while Grunt was there and he got protective over the classroom because he felt like it was his space to protect and went back to being a happy dog when his owner told him it was O.K.) Dr. Ange asked you to watch BBC Pedigree Dogs Exposed. Please name one breed talked about in the video and give a brief explaination of what the breed suffers from and why it is so controversial. Many Cavalier king charles Spaniels suffer from syringomyelia, a disease caused by the skull being too small for the brain. Even though these dogs go through intense pain and either have to be put down or go through intense, risky surgery the AKC will happily register and allow breeds with this disease to become show dogs and win shows. The controversy is that people should be focused on breeding cavalier king charles spaniels without this disease so that it can be eliminated, and the AKC shouldn't support the breeding of dogs with syringomyelia. Briefly explain what domestication is and how it differs from taming. Give examples for each. Domestication is when an animal becomes completely dependent on a human for food and won't leave, this takes generations to have. A tame animal, like a domesticated animal will approach and accept food from a human and (hopefully) won't hurt a human but these animals will leave and still have wild instincts. (ex. The squirrels at NC state, if you feed them every day and they return for food and will take it from you without hurting you they are considered tame, but they are still wild and don't want to wait for long before they leave. A domesticated squirrel would stay all day) MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE: A squirrel that is willing to stay all day with a human is not domesticated. Any breed of a dog would be domesticated because the genetic structure has been altered through selective breeding What type of dog does Cpt. Standish personally use for her own medical condition? In addition, name a different type of medical condition that Cpt. Standish trains dogs for (be specific). She had a miniature pinscher Gracie, who is now retired, and now has an Italian Greyhound named Ava to help notify her for seizures.

Maloclussion In class we talked about rabbits and what happened with them in Australia. Explain what happened, the specific methods used to attempt fixing the problem, and why it is considered controversial. In 1859, one pair of rabbits was brought into Australia and 30 years later there were 20 million of them. The thought to get rid of them was to use pesticide, but because rabbits reproduce so quickly, some were immune and were able to pass that immunity on to their offspring, creating a new immunity gene in the future generations to come. It's considered controversial because they are an invasive species, they further help with erosion, and many more things.
