The Theory of Evolution

The Theory of Evolution Write anything you know about the theory of evolution on a post stick note and stick it at the front If you don’t know anything write “Absolutely Nothing” and come and do the same

Evolution is the slow, continual change of organisms over a very long time. All living things on the Earth have developed from the first simple life forms that arrived 3,000,000,000 years ago. RECAP FROM YEAR 9

Watch the video about evolution… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQp2lFcDEbw Simpsons clip While you are watching think about what is happening, be ready to give your answer (note down examples if you like) L.O. To be able to evaluate the theory of evolution and reflect my opinion

Survival of the Fittest Natural Selection Survival of the Fittest What makes these the ‘fittest’ in their environment?

Survival of the Fittest Natural Selection Survival of the Fittest Darwin formed his ideas aboard the Beagle voyage He noticed that some creatures appeared slightly different to others of their kind because of their environment Some other people had also thought about the possibility of evolution But Darwin was the first scientist to propose the theory of ‘natural selection’

Only the strongest survives!! How did we survive??? Only the strongest survives!!

Survival of the fittest is... Natural selection is... Survival of the fittest is...

Theory of evolution Darwin’s book: The Origin of Species The one animal that Darwin did not discuss in any way in his book was Man But very quickly readers of the book thought that the theory had to apply to Man as well as other creatures. The book was very controversial because before it, most people thought that all life had been created exactly as it was now.

This cartoon appeared in the same year as Darwin’s book Man is but a worm

The Catholic View http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/10/28/pope-francis-evolution-big-bang/18053509/ Read and watch video clip Explain what Catholic respond to evolution

The Christian View Some Christians still believe that Adam and Eve were real people Some Christians believe that the book of Genesis describes creation exactly the way it happened. But the Catholic Church accepts the theory of evolution as well as Big Bang

Creationists Creationists reject evolution completely In some schools in America the teaching of evolution is banned http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/07/07/noahs-ark-replica-unveiled-in-kentucky-amid-anger-at-scientifica/ Read newspaper link as a class

Some scientific problems with the theory of Evolution “Irreducible complexity” – from the biologist Michael Behe Some things are just too complicated to have evolved from simpler things, Behe says it’s a bit like a mousetrap...

Irreducible Complexity Behe uses the mousetrap to explain this idea. A mousetrap consists of five pieces: the base, the catch, the spring, the hammer, and the hold-down bar. All of these must be in place for the mousetrap to work the removal of any one piece means the mousetrap won’t work. biological systems require multiple parts working together in order to function. Take one part away and it won’t work.
