Evolution Notes Part 2

III. Mechanisms of Change – How does evolution happen? *Old Theory – organisms changed based on a “goal” Ex: giraffes stretched their necks to reach leaves Lamarck

Natural Selection – Darwin’s conclusion 1. Organisms best suited (adapted) to their physical environment survive to pass along their genes to the next generation a. Natural selection happens at the gene level

2. Nickname: “Survival of the Fittest” Fitness: An organism’s ability to survive in its environment and pass along its genes *Does NOT have to mean: stronger, bigger, etc.

3. Organisms that survive selective pressures (disease, predators, natural disasters, etc.) will pass along their genes

4. Environments change and have different selective pressures, so new species evolve over time a. There is no “end goal” in evolution!

5. Genetic variation in nature provides a range of traits to choose from during natural selection Ex) leg length in deer Ex) shoe sizes in a class

6. Populations of organisms evolve – not individuals 6. Populations of organisms evolve – not individuals *The percentage of alleles in a population changes based on which is best adapted for environment

What is wrong with the way this cartoon shows evolution? How does it really work?

How do natural selection and evolution really work? Explain to the cats why they can’t make themselves have an adaptation to open cans

Name some adaptations you see here and how natural selection can explain them

How about these?

B. Sexual Selection 1. A process of selection based on traits that give an organism an advantage in finding a mate and passing on its genes

2. Males are usually the ones who display unusual traits to attract females. Ex) Peacock’s feathers, lion’s mane, etc.

3. Traits good for sexual selection may be bad for natural selection 3. Traits good for sexual selection may be bad for natural selection! Called the “Handicap principle.” Ex) Flashy colors, large clumsy feathers, bird songs, etc. May show that: “I am so healthy I can survive with this handicap - I’m a good mate, I have good genes!”

Sexual Selection Video Watch for some of the adaptations you see in the birds that are useful for sexual selection (and maybe bad for natural selection?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYcs73oeFkc

C. Artificial Selection 1. Process of selection in which humans choose which traits are passed to offspring *Helped Darwin make his theory of natural selection

2. Used in crops, livestock, pets

3. Because of the variation of a trait within a species, we can choose the variation we want to increase Ex) Choose the biggest puppies to breed next time – gradually you will get bigger dogs
