1 Evolution Selection Natural vs. artificial Fitness Galapagos Finch Directional, Stabilizing, Disruptive Selection Polymorphism = several forms of a species in same habitat Microevolution vs. Macroevolution Microevolution: change in allele frequency Macroevolution: formation of new species

2 Field Assistants

3 Chesapeake Bay Retrievers= +

6 English Peppered Moth Example

7 Before industrial revolution After industrial revolution English Peppered Moth Example

8 Darwin’s 2 Major Ideas Variation within an species (organisms of the same species do not look exactly alike) Not all the offspring produced survive (there is a struggle for existence)

10 Macroevolution: formation of new species Allopatric Speciation: formation of new species due to geographic (physical) barrier Sympatric Speciation: formation of new species due to genetic mutation or reproductive isolation (although they occur together) Adaptive Radiation: formation of new species due to new opportunities (niches) i.e. islands
