Abstract

Critical thinking skills can be developed through the learning process. Biotechnology material requires students' critical thinking skills in the learning process. SMAN 1 Payakumbuh has done critical thinking skills in the learning process but it is still not optimal, and data on critical thinking skills are still unknown. This study aims to analyse the level of Critical Thinking Skills of Class XII Students of SMAN 1 Payakumbuh about Biotechnology Materials. This type of research is descriptive research with simple random sampling technique. The instrument used in this study was a test of students' critical thinking skills, and a validity test questionnaire. The data analysis technique used is quantitative descriptive analysis and qualitative descriptive analysis. Based on the results of the research that has been carried out, the data obtained that the results of the critical thinking skills of class XII students of SMAN 1 Payakumbuh were analysed per indicator. The conclusion of this study is the level of critical thinking skills of each indicator of class XII students of SMAN 1 Payakumbuh at low qualification qualifications with an average of 50.59%.

Abstract

Chromosomes become an important substance for an organism because they contain information useful for cell regulation and as a hereditary agent. The character of an organism is determined by genes located on chromosomes. Changes in chromosomes will have a significant influence on the evolution of a species. One of the factors that influence changes in chromosomes is mutation. Mutation is a form of defense of an organism in the face of the changing state of nature. Neacomys diversification is caused by gene fusion events, translocations, amplications, and constitutive heterochromatin (CH). In the family Crenuchidae genus Caracidium there was a revision in the diversification of chromosomes 2n of 50 chromosomes composed of 32 metacentric + 18 sub-metacentrics. This is due to differences in the number of rDNA sites, heterochromatin blocks, number of B chromosomes and the size of sex chromosomes, as well as repeated DNA dynamics on chromosomes observed among species forming diversification and chromosomal speciation. In the boidae family reptile class there was a fusion of chromosomes which resulted in the conclusion that the kariotype configuration in snakes is currently the clade of primitive Neotropic snakes.

Abstract

The fingerprint pattern (dermatoglyphics) of each individual is not the same. Fingerprint patterns are often used as an identification tool in criminal cases and disease diagnosis. Fingerprint patterns for health diagnosis are usually diseases caused by genetic factors, for example hypertension. The purpose of this study was to describe the characteristics of fingertip dermatoglyphics of hypertension patients. The research sample was 60 people consisting of 30 people with hypertension who visited the DR. M. Djamil Padang and controls 30 non-hypertension (normal) people from Biology FMIPA UNP students. Simple random sampling. The research variables are tendril patterns on the fingertips. The Chi-square test was used to analyse the tendril pattern data of hypertension patients. The results showed that the arch fingerprint pattern is a unique character in hypertensive patients.
