1 Evolution Review Get out your journals! Turn to Evolution Stations!

2 Charles Darwin Father of: – Evolution Evolution states: all life as we know it came from A common Ancestor

3 Peppered Moth Story -Industrial Revolution Time Period

4 Fossil Record Comparing fossils from older, more primitive species, to younger, more complex species in rock layers document that evolution has occurred.

5 Homologous structures Same Structure/physical traits

6 Analogous Structures Same Functions/Different Organisms Bird and Bat Wings Examples:

7 Vestigial organs Organs that serve no useful function in organisms. Humans: Appendix Whales: Pelvic Bone

8

9 Having lots of species in an area Biodiversity Differences in Genes Variations These 2 factors lead to increased survival in populations.

10 Geographic Isolation: physical barriers –Mountains –Oceans

11 Natural Selection Survival of the fittest” Those that are better suited to their environment (better phenotypes or physical characteristics) survive and reproduce successfully

12 2. Mutations Mutation A mistake in DNA that contributes to the variation (introduction of new genes) of a species and is very important in evolution.

13 Gene Flow Organism’s moving in and out of an area to search for…….. –Hunt for food –Living space –Other resources

14 GENETIC DRIFT A change in the population because of a random event, such as a catastrophe The smaller the population, the less genetic variety it has. traits can be lost from one generation to the next.

15 Based on this Cladogram, which organism is most closely related to the Chimp? -Mouse

16 Based on this Cladogram, all of the organisms have jaws except: -Hagfish

17 The Galapagos Island Darwin’s visit to these islands, the differences in the animals, and his observations that habitat can affect the adaptations of organisms.

18 -Early eukaryotic cells formed from symbiotic relationships between two prokaryotic cells. The presence of DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts supports this hypothesis

19 Behavioral Isolation

20 Camouflage Allows organism to hide from predators

21 Artificial Selection humans breed other animals and plants for particular traits.animalsplants Inbreeding is preferential mating with relatives. Inbreeding is a common form of non-random mating. Inbreeding increases the frequency of homozygous genotypes This increases the frequency of recessive genetic disorders. Cute, but prone to genetically-based disorders.

22 The Genetic Basis of Evolution are all of the alleles (alternate forms of genes) in all of the individuals that make up a population. Gene Pool

23 Temporal Isolation These are closely related species, but the American toad mates in the early part of summer, while the Fowler's toad mates later in the season.

24 Adaptation A advantageous trait that allows an organism to better survive. –Ex. Venom –Ex. Camoflauge

25 Embryology similarities in the early embryos indicated that they descended from a common ancestor

26 Gradualism Evolution happening slowly.

27 Punctuated Equilibrium Evolution in a short period of time usually due to some kind of event.
