Do Now What role does natural selection play in genetics?

Unit 3C : Genetics, Evolutionary Psych, & Behavior Evolutionary Psychology #s 4-6

Natural Selection & Adaptation Evolutionary Psychology Natural selection Traits are passed on for survival and reproductive purposes EX: seeing at dark helped one live so those that could see in the dark made babies Mutation EX: mutants in X-Men Adaptation Changing to the needs of the environment Fitness Our ability to survive and reproduce

Evolutionary Success Behaviors that contribute to survival are found throughout cultures Genetic traits which helped our ancestors survive may harm us today The Second Darwinian Revolutionary Takes evolutionary principles and applies them to psychology

Evolutionary Explanation of Sexual Behavior Studies suggest that men have a stronger tendency towards sex Gender Differences when it comes to mating Male preferences Women who look healthy Have waist 1/3 smaller than hips Women who are fertility peak Typically younger Female preferences Men who are mature, dominate, affluent Thus a little older

Critiques of Evolutionary Psych Backwards theorizing Start with the effect and work backward to explain Fails to account for social influences Gives little responsibilities for their sexual behavior
