SimBio Virtual Labs® | Flowers and Trees© 2020, SimBio. All Rights Reserved.3Exercise 1: Columbine Flower Traits[ 1 ] If you haven’t already, start SimUText® by double-clicking the program icon on your computer or by selecting it from the Start menu. When the program opens, enter your Log In information and select the Flowers and Trees lab from your My Assignments window.The model columbine populations you will experiment with live on a series of peaks in the Rocky Mountains in western North America. These peaks are shown as squares on the right side of the lab window. Because our model columbines thrive only at high elevations, the mountain peaks are effectively islands of good habitat floating in an uninhabitable sea of poor habitat.Columbine seeds typically do not travel far. Instead, they drop to the ground near their parents. The mountain peaks in our model are far apart, so columbine seeds rarely move from one peak to another. A seed can make such a trip only if it gets picked up by an extraordinarily strong wind or if it gets stuck to the hoof of an elk or the boot of a hiker.[ 2 ] There are 8 flower traits that you will look for in the model columbines. To see the traits, double click or CTRL-click (z click on a Mac) on one of the tiny flowers, such as the one on Peak 1. You will see a Trait Editor window appear. This window contains an enlarged profile view of the flower, plus the 8 variable traits listed in pull-down menus.In the center of the window, you’ll find an enlarged profile view of a columbine flower, with each of the structures labeled. Use this large-scale view as a guide when working with the Trait Editor.[ 3 ] Find the trait listed as “Anthers”. Anthers are the male parts of the flower; they are the structures that make pollen. The anthers sit atop hair-like filaments that poke up from the middle of the flower. The columbine you found on Peak 1 has white anthers. To mutate the flower so it has yellow anthers, select Yellow from the pull-down menu next to the word Anthers.[ 4 ] Go to each of the other traits and mutate them back and forth between their two states. As you do so, examine the changes in the enlarged cartoon flowers until you are familiar with what each of the traits looks like. When you are done, close the Trait Editor window
