Growth of Populations : Growth of Populations Population: consists of all the individuals of a species that live in a specific area and can interbreed Evolution by Natural Selection : Evolution by Natural Selection What was Darwin’s theory of natural selection? Individuals that are better suited for their environment will survive and reproduce Katydid Which would you eat? : Which would you eat? 1. Shield Bug 2. phyllium pulchrifolium Find the Moths : Find the Moths Evolution by Natural Selection : Evolution by Natural Selection Adaptation: is a feature that allows an organism to better survive in its environment Publication of Darwin’s Work : Publication of Darwin’s Work Who persuaded Darwin to publish his essay and why? What was his essay called? He was persuaded to publish after he received a letter from Alfred Wallace that asked Darwin to help him publish his essay on Natural Selection. The Origin of Species The Origin of Species : The Origin of Species There is grandeur in this view of life; with its several powers having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most wonderful and most beautiful have been, and are being evolved. Darwin’s Theory- 4 main principles : Darwin’s Theory- 4 main principles Variation, exists within genes of a species Overproduction: many offspring are produced, not all will survive based on competition Adaptation: those that are better adapted will survive Descent with modification: over time species that are better suited for the environment will pass on their traits and the traits will become more common in the population. How Natural Selection brings on evolution! : How Natural Selection brings on evolution! Individuals that are best suited to survive and do well in their environment will produce the most offspring. Natural selection causes the frequency of certain forms of genes to increase or decrease over time. Natural selection acts on existing variation. : Natural selection can act only on traits that already exist. Structures take on new functions in addition to their original function. Natural selection acts on existing variation. A panda’s wrist bone also functions like a thumb What does “survival of the fittest” mean? : What does “survival of the fittest” mean? Organisms best suited (strongest, most adaptable) will survive. Species Formation : Species Formation Reproductive Isolation: condition in which two populations of the same species do not breed with each other because of geographic separation. As two isolated populations of the same species become more different over time, they eventually become unable to breed with one another. Give an example of reproductive isolation in action. : Give an example of reproductive isolation in action. Kaibab squirrel- North Rim Grand Canyon, black belly Abert squirrel- South Rim grand Canyon, white belly Because they are isolated scientists call them separate species. Slide 53: Kaibab Squirrel Abert Squirrel The Tempo of Evolution : The Tempo of Evolution Gradualism: gradual change over time that leads to species formation The Tempo of Evolution : The Tempo of Evolution Punctuated Equilibrium: periods of rapid change in species are separated by periods of little or no change Beginning Question for Section 2 : Beginning Question for Section 2 Try to identify the pictures of different fossils. Write down the number and beside it what organism you think it is. Slide 57: Mammoth Slide 58: Fish Slide 59: Nautilus Evidence for Evolution : Evidence for Evolution Evidence for Evolution is found in five main areas 1. Fossil Record 2. Geographic Distribution of Living Species 3. Anatomy 4. Embryology 5. DNA Fossil Record : Fossil Record Fossil: remains of a once living thing http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/library/04/3/l_043_01.html Fossils offer the most direct evidence that evolution takes place Transitional Forms or intermediates show how organisms evolve. The age of fossils can be measured through radiometric dating Horse evolution : Horse evolution Whale Evolution : Whale Evolution Tiny hind legs were useless on land and shorter neck and longer tail makes Dorudon similar to modern whales. Walking whale that swims, fish eater the size of a sea lion Whale shaped skull and teeth adapted for hunting fish Geographic Distribution of Living Species : Geographic Distribution of Living Species Living species are different because of where they are located. They adapted to the environments they are in Ex. Beaver- North America Muskrat- North America Capybara- South America Coypu- South America Slide 65: Beaver NORTH AMERICA Muskrat Capybara SOUTH AMERICA Coypu Beaver Muskrat Beaver and Muskrat Coypu Capybara Coypu and Capybara Large Cactus Finch: thick beaks that can feed on large, hard seeds that require strength for crushingSmall Tree Finch: have biting strength at the tips of their beaks which is useful for tearing vegetation : Large Cactus Finch: thick beaks that can feed on large, hard seeds that require strength for crushingSmall Tree Finch: have biting strength at the tips of their beaks which is useful for tearing vegetation Distribution of Marsupials : Distribution of Marsupials Anatomy : Anatomy Homologous Structures: structures that have different forms but develop from the same embryonic tissues and have a common ancestor Vertebrate bone structure Vestigial Structures: a structure in an organism that serves no useful function and is reduced in size Ex. Hind limbs of a whale Slide 69: Human hand Mole foot Bat wing Homologous Structures : Homologous Structures Slide 72: Analogous structures are not evidence of a common ancestor. Analogous structures have a similar function. What would be the vestigial structure on an ostrich? : What would be the vestigial structure on an ostrich? Wings More examples of vestigial structures : More examples of vestigial structures Fish that live in caves have vestigial non-functioning eyes Anatomy : Anatomy Embryology : Embryology Early stage of embryos are very similar Embryonic cells develop in the same order for all vertebrates All vertebrate embryos have three physical features in common Tail Buds that become limbs Pharyngeal gill slits Slide 78: Example of how embryology shows evidence for evolution identical larvae, different adult body forms similar embryos, diverse organisms DNA : DNA Organisms can be compared based on DNA DNA sequences are very similar in organisms that share common ancestors Slide 80: Example from the Dover trial: Genome Sequence Data Tests Human Evolution Slide 81: Example: the Evolutionary Hypothesis of Common Ancestry Chromosome Numbers in the great apes: human (Homo) 46chimpanzee (Pan) 48gorilla (Gorilla) 48orangutan (Pogo) 48 Testable prediction: If these organisms share a common ancestor, that ancestor had either 48 chromosomes (24 pairs) or 46 (23 pairs). Slide 82: Chromosome Numbers in the great apes (Hominidae): human (Homo) 46chimpanzee (Pan) 48gorilla (Gorilla) 48orangutan (Pogo) 48 Testable prediction: Common ancestor had 48 chromosomes (24 pairs) and humans carry a fused chromosome; or ancestor had 23 pairs, and apes carry a split chromosome. Centromere Telomere Ancestral Chromosomes Slide 83: “Chromosome 2 is unique to the human lineage of evolution, having emerged as a result of head-to-head fusion of two acrocentric chromosomes that remained separate in other primates. The precise fusion site has been located in 2q13–2q14.1 (ref. 2; hg 16:114455823 – 114455838), where our analysis confirmed the presence of multiple subtelomeric duplications to chromosomes 1, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, 19, 21 and 22 (Fig. 3; Supplementary Fig. 3a, region A). During the formation of human chromosome 2, one of the two centromeres became inactivated (2q21, which corresponds to the centromere from chimp chromosome 13) and the centromeric structure quickly deterioriated (42).” Homo sapiens Inactivated centromere Telomere sequences Hillier et al (2005) “Generation and Annotation of the DNA sequences of human chromosomes 2 and 4,” Nature 434: 724 – 731. Human Chromosome #2 shows the exact point at which this fusion took place Slide 84: includes Evidence of Evolution which is composed of which indicates which implies which implies Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Identify characteristics of birds that provide information about their diets. Beak size and shape Size of Bird Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Insects are the largest group of animals on the Earth. Why do you think so many species of insects have evolved? Insects are adapted to many different kinds of environments and rely on many different food sources. Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Make a chart to compare how these two bears live and survive in their environments (include the habitats of the bears, what kind of food they eat, how their camouflage helps them survive in their habitat, and why each might not survive in the other’s environment.) Chart : Chart Natural Selection at Work : Natural Selection at Work The environment controls the direction and amount of change of an organism Ex. Polar bear- white fur allows it to blend in, warmer climate would not have this protection. Example of Natural Selection : Example of Natural Selection What is tuberculosis? (what causes it, what are the symptoms) Lung disease Caused by bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) Kills more people than any other infectious disease. Symptoms: coughing, sharp chest pain when breathing, spitting up blood, flu symptoms(fever, tired, etc). Example of Natural Selection : Example of Natural Selection Why is TB so deadly? TB mutates very easily When it mutates it creates TB strains that are resistant to antibotics Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance : Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance Explain how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. (Use the example of TB) Mutated bacteria develop which are resistant to antibiotics Normal bacteria die, mutated live Mutated reproduce and infect host Ex. Gonorrhea : Ex. Gonorrhea In the 1960s penicillin and ampicillin were able to control most cases of gonorrhea. Today, more than 24 percent of gonorrheal bacteria in the U.S. are resistant to at least one antibiotic, and 98 percent of gonorrheal bacteria in Southeast Asia are resistant to penicillin. How to control antibiotic resistance : How to control antibiotic resistance Don’t use antibiotics to treat viral infections Avoid mild doses of antibiotics over long time periods. When treating a bacterial infection with antibiotics, take all your pills. Use a combination of drugs to treat a bacterial infection. Reduce or eliminate the “preventive” use of antibiotics on livestock and crops. Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches List the different types of finches Darwin found and what type of food they eat. Ground Finches Large Bills: seeds Narrower bills: insects, fruits Sharp beak: drink the blood of sea birds Evolution in Darwin’s Finches : Evolution in Darwin’s Finches Explain the number and types of finches that were found in the dry years compared to the wet years. Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches What do you think: Why do you think beak size returns to normal following each dry year? There are more seeds available and beak size is not as important Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches What do you think: What would have to happen for beak size to remain large in the population over many years? There would have to be many dry years where only large seeds are found. Formation of New Species : Formation of New Species Divergence: accumulation of differences between groups Speciation: formation of a new species Hypothetical Example : Hypothetical Example The scene: a population of wild fruit flies minding its own business on several bunches of rotting bananas, cheerfully laying their eggs in the mushy fruit... Slide 101: Disaster strikes: A hurricane washes the bananas and the immature fruit flies they contain out to sea. The banana bunch eventually washes up on an island off the coast of the mainland. The fruit flies mature and emerge from their slimy nursery onto the lonely island. The two portions of the population, mainland and island, are now too far apart for gene flow to unite them. At this point, speciation has not occurred—any fruit flies that got back to the mainland could mate and produce healthy offspring with the mainland flies. Slide 102: The populations diverge: Ecological conditions are slightly different on the island, and the island population evolves under different selective pressures and experiences different random events than the mainland population does. Morphology, food preferences, and courtship displays change over the course of many generations of natural selection Slide 103: So we meet again: When another storm reintroduces the island flies to the mainland, they will not readily mate with the mainland flies since they’ve evolved different courtship behaviors. The few that do mate with the mainland flies, produce unviable eggs because of other genetic differences between the two populations. The lineage has split now that genes cannot flow between the populations. Forming Subspecies : Forming Subspecies Natural Selection results in the evolution of offspring that are better adapted to their environment Forming Subspecies : Forming Subspecies Subspecies: populations of the same species that differ genetically because they adapted to different environments What barriers may isolate two related groups? : What barriers may isolate two related groups? Geographically isolated (on different continents) Reproduce at different times Physical barriers (mountains, canyons) Evolution is a working science : Evolution is a working science New discoveries are being made every year to add to the puzzle Let it all Come Together! : Let it all Come Together! Put these steps (natural selection, variation, new species, divergence, isolation) of making a new species in order in which they occur. Beside each word write a small description of the word. Slide 109: Evolution Divergence Genetic Variation Extinction Natural Selection Speciation Environment Is driven by Does not occur if species cannot adapt Which results in Populations Occurs in Which requires Conditions in the Which lead to Can result in You do not have the permission to view this presentation.

Organisms best suited (strongest, most adaptable) will survive. Species Formation : Species Formation Reproductive Isolation: condition in which two populations of the same species do not breed with each other because of geographic separation. As two isolated populations of the same species become more different over time, they eventually become unable to breed with one another. Give an example of reproductive isolation in action. : Give an example of reproductive isolation in action. Kaibab squirrel- North Rim Grand Canyon, black belly Abert squirrel- South Rim grand Canyon, white belly Because they are isolated scientists call them separate species.

Write down the number and beside it what organism you think it is. Slide 57: Mammoth Slide 58: Fish Slide 59: Nautilus Evidence for Evolution : Evidence for Evolution Evidence for Evolution is found in five main areas 1. Fossil Record 2. Geographic Distribution of Living Species 3. Anatomy 4. Embryology 5. DNA Fossil Record : Fossil Record Fossil: remains of a once living thing http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/library/04/3/l_043_01.html Fossils offer the most direct evidence that evolution takes place Transitional Forms or intermediates show how organisms evolve. The age of fossils can be measured through radiometric dating Horse evolution : Horse evolution Whale Evolution : Whale Evolution Tiny hind legs were useless on land and shorter neck and longer tail makes Dorudon similar to modern whales. Walking whale that swims, fish eater the size of a sea lion Whale shaped skull and teeth adapted for hunting fish Geographic Distribution of Living Species : Geographic Distribution of Living Species Living species are different because of where they are located. They adapted to the environments they are in Ex.

Slide 82: Chromosome Numbers in the great apes (Hominidae): human (Homo) 46chimpanzee (Pan) 48gorilla (Gorilla) 48orangutan (Pogo) 48 Testable prediction: Common ancestor had 48 chromosomes (24 pairs) and humans carry a fused chromosome; or ancestor had 23 pairs, and apes carry a split chromosome. Centromere Telomere Ancestral Chromosomes Slide 83: “Chromosome 2 is unique to the human lineage of evolution, having emerged as a result of head-to-head fusion of two acrocentric chromosomes that remained separate in other primates. The precise fusion site has been located in 2q13–2q14.1 (ref. 2; hg 16:114455823 – 114455838), where our analysis confirmed the presence of multiple subtelomeric duplications to chromosomes 1, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, 19, 21 and 22 (Fig. 3; Supplementary Fig. 3a, region A). During the formation of human chromosome 2, one of the two centromeres became inactivated (2q21, which corresponds to the centromere from chimp chromosome 13) and the centromeric structure quickly deterioriated (42).” Homo sapiens Inactivated centromere Telomere sequences Hillier et al (2005) “Generation and Annotation of the DNA sequences of human chromosomes 2 and 4,” Nature 434: 724 – 731. Human Chromosome #2 shows the exact point at which this fusion took place Slide 84: includes Evidence of Evolution which is composed of which indicates which implies which implies Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Identify characteristics of birds that provide information about their diets. Beak size and shape Size of Bird Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Insects are the largest group of animals on the Earth. Why do you think so many species of insects have evolved? Insects are adapted to many different kinds of environments and rely on many different food sources. Beginning Questions : Beginning Questions Make a chart to compare how these two bears live and survive in their environments (include the habitats of the bears, what kind of food they eat, how their camouflage helps them survive in their habitat, and why each might not survive in the other’s environment.) Chart : Chart Natural Selection at Work : Natural Selection at Work The environment controls the direction and amount of change of an organism Ex. Polar bear- white fur allows it to blend in, warmer climate would not have this protection. Example of Natural Selection : Example of Natural Selection What is tuberculosis? (what causes it, what are the symptoms) Lung disease Caused by bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) Kills more people than any other infectious disease. Symptoms: coughing, sharp chest pain when breathing, spitting up blood, flu symptoms(fever, tired, etc). Example of Natural Selection : Example of Natural Selection Why is TB so deadly? TB mutates very easily When it mutates it creates TB strains that are resistant to antibotics Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance : Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance Explain how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. (Use the example of TB) Mutated bacteria develop which are resistant to antibiotics Normal bacteria die, mutated live Mutated reproduce and infect host Ex. Gonorrhea : Ex. Gonorrhea In the 1960s penicillin and ampicillin were able to control most cases of gonorrhea. Today, more than 24 percent of gonorrheal bacteria in the U.S. are resistant to at least one antibiotic, and 98 percent of gonorrheal bacteria in Southeast Asia are resistant to penicillin. How to control antibiotic resistance : How to control antibiotic resistance Don’t use antibiotics to treat viral infections Avoid mild doses of antibiotics over long time periods. When treating a bacterial infection with antibiotics, take all your pills. Use a combination of drugs to treat a bacterial infection. Reduce or eliminate the “preventive” use of antibiotics on livestock and crops. Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches List the different types of finches Darwin found and what type of food they eat. Ground Finches Large Bills: seeds Narrower bills: insects, fruits Sharp beak: drink the blood of sea birds Evolution in Darwin’s Finches : Evolution in Darwin’s Finches Explain the number and types of finches that were found in the dry years compared to the wet years. Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches What do you think: Why do you think beak size returns to normal following each dry year? There are more seeds available and beak size is not as important Evolution of Darwin’s Finches : Evolution of Darwin’s Finches What do you think: What would have to happen for beak size to remain large in the population over many years? There would have to be many dry years where only large seeds are found. Formation of New Species : Formation of New Species Divergence: accumulation of differences between groups Speciation: formation of a new species Hypothetical Example : Hypothetical Example The scene: a population of wild fruit flies minding its own business on several bunches of rotting bananas, cheerfully laying their eggs in the mushy fruit... Slide 101: Disaster strikes: A hurricane washes the bananas and the immature fruit flies they contain out to sea. The banana bunch eventually washes up on an island off the coast of the mainland. The fruit flies mature and emerge from their slimy nursery onto the lonely island. The two portions of the population, mainland and island, are now too far apart for gene flow to unite them. At this point, speciation has not occurred—any fruit flies that got back to the mainland could mate and produce healthy offspring with the mainland flies. Slide 102: The populations diverge: Ecological conditions are slightly different on the island, and the island population evolves under different selective pressures and experiences different random events than the mainland population does. Morphology, food preferences, and courtship displays change over the course of many generations of natural selection Slide 103: So we meet again: When another storm reintroduces the island flies to the mainland, they will not readily mate with the mainland flies since they’ve evolved different courtship behaviors. The few that do mate with the mainland flies, produce unviable eggs because of other genetic differences between the two populations. The lineage has split now that genes cannot flow between the populations. Forming Subspecies : Forming Subspecies Natural Selection results in the evolution of offspring that are better adapted to their environment Forming Subspecies : Forming Subspecies Subspecies: populations of the same species that differ genetically because they adapted to different environments What barriers may isolate two related groups? : What barriers may isolate two related groups?
