History of Life on Earth Chapter 25

Overview First Cells Major Life events Fossil Record Geologic Time scale Mass extinctions Continental Drift

What was Early Earth like?

What do we really know about the first living organism??

Can we take Darwin’s theory all the way back to the Origin of Life?

What were the major milestones in the Evolution of Life?

How long ago was that ?

Getting used to the geologic time scale… We use Millions of years (MYA) and Billions (BYA) of years ago. One Million Years: If we give 10,000 years for all of recorded human history One million years equals 100 times all human history. Enough time for 30,000 generations

Evolutionary Clock Eras not to scale “Our” world, with plants and animals on land is not very old Protists and Bacteria / Archae have been around longer and are more diverse.

Ceno- zoic Meso- zoic Paleozoic Origin of solar system and Earth 1 4 Fig 25-UN11 Ceno- zoic Meso- zoic Paleozoic Origin of solar system and Earth 1 4 Proterozoic Archaean Billions of years ago 2 3

Geologic Time Scale Table 25.1 Know : Eons Phanerozoic Proterozoic Archaean 4 eras Their dates Major Animal and Plant groups “Precambrian” Era Periods: Permian Cretaceous (K) Tertiary (T)

The three Eras and the new groups that begin to dominate on land Cenozoic – 65.5 MYA Mammals, birds flowering plants Mesozoic – 251 MYA Reptiles, conifers Paleozoic – 542 MYA Amphibians, insects, moss, ferns Precambrian (2 eons) – 4.6 BYA Origin of animal phyla Protists, bacteria

The three Eons and the new groups that begin to dominate on land Phanerozoic – Present to 542 MYA “Precambrian”: Proterozoic - 542- 2,500 MYA Origins of Eukaryotes Archaean – 2,500- 4,500 MYA bacteria, and oxygen atmosphere

Four Eras Why ? Eras do not have same amount of time Pace of evolution quickens with each major branch or era . Recent organisms generally are more complex – older ones simpler. Why ?

Key Events in the History of Life on Earth 4.6 BYA Formation of Earth Origins of Biomolecules Formation of Polymers Origin of Protobionts; Self replicating RNA-DNA; Metabolism; Evolution 3.5 BYA Formation of first cell – prokaryotes

How did Life come into being ?

Spontaneous generation ? Life from non-living matter. Mice from wet hay makes mice Refute for animals, and plants in 1600’s. Still thought to be the case for microbes, until Pasteur.

Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) Disproved spontaneous generation Showed that biogenesis alone accounted for new cells Invented Pasteurization

Biogenesis Life (whole organisms) comes from reproduction of other preexisting life. Later, the cell theory will be similar all cells come from preexisting cells.

What about the first Cell? Scientists think, first cell-like structures came from non living matter. What would be needed to make a cell from scratch ?

Origin of life - Need to have biomolecules: Complex Carbohydrates Proteins Lipids Nucleic acids To make membranes,enzymes, DNA and all the other cellular components.

Where did biomolecules come from? Today only living organisms make biomolecules

“Arm Chair” science Still mostly untested hypotheses, and conjecture. Trying to test hypotheses by making artificial cells in labs.

Conditions on Earth 4 BYA Oparin – Haldane 1920’s chemists No free Oxygen – No Ozone layer More uv radiation Reducing (electron rich) atmosphere More lightning Meteorite bombardment More volcanic activity H20, Methane (CH4), Ammonia (NH3)

Energy rich early earth

Urey & Miller - 1953 Used Oparin / Haldane ideas of earth earth conditions Made an apparatus to mimic early earth conditions Let run and tested fluid for compounds Found simple sugars, amino acids, and other organic compounds.

Stanley Miller

Abiotic synthesis of macromolecules Significance: Abiotic synthesis of macromolecules

Ribozymes RNA self replication before enzymes? RNA before DNA

Hypothetical Protobionts

Not “facts” but working hypotheses Lab experiments can only show what could have happened Other thoughts: Deep sea vents – constant environment, chemical energy Panspermia or microbes from meteorites Most like our understanding will change greatly in future.

Universal Common Ancestor Hypothetical Would be cell from which all modern life has descended Have things that ALL living organisms share: Phospholipid bilayer cell membrane Use DNA/ RNA for genes, and make proteins from the genetic code Glycolysis, ATP in their metabolism

Fossil Record Fossil any preserved remnant or impression of an organism that lived in the past Most form in sedimentary rock, from organisms buried in deposits of sand and silt. Compressed by other layers. Also includes impressions in mud Most organic matter replaced with minerals by Petrification Some fossils may retain organic matter Encased in ice, amber, peat, or dehydrated Pollen Pollen most common fossil Some DNA has been cloned from fossilized leaves

Fossil Formation –

Radiometric “absolute” dating

Dating Fossils Brachiopod index fossils “Absolute” Radiometric dating: decay and half-life of natural isotopes. Index dating – comparing index fossils in strata Brachiopod index fossils

Many changes in geologic history due to Plate tectonics

Layers of the Earth Crust Asthenosphere Lithosphere Mantle Core Crust Low-velocity zone Solid Outer core (liquid) Inner core (solid) 35 km (21 mi.) avg., 1,200˚C 2,900km (1,800 mi.) 3,700˚C 5,200 km (3,100 mi.), 4,300˚C 10 to 65km 100 km 200 km 100 km (60 mi.) 200 km (120 mi.) Lithosphere Asthenosphere (depth unknown)

Plate tectonics The study of the movement of earth structures in the crust. Internal forces from the core create heat that keeps asthenosphere molten. Convection cells Mantle Plumes

Convection Cell in Mantle

Earth’s Layers - Crust Oceanic Crust Continental Crust only 3 miles thick Continental Crust up to 12-40 miles thick Oceans change shape much more than continents. These land movements we call Plate Tectonics, and cause earthquakes.

Plate tectonics- Divergent Areas Plates spread apart in Divergent (constructive) making new crust

Convergent zones Plates move together and collide. An Oceanic Plate sinks under Continental in a Subduction zone. Causes Earthquakes, volcanoes When Continental plates collide neither subducts, both deform, mountains

Australia becomes completely isolated 65.5 MYA NA and Europe still touched 135 MYA Pangea broke up into Laurasia and Gondwanaland 251 MYA Pangea all land masses touched Solves problems first posed by botanist for plant and fossil distributions. The two previously separate floras came into contact, species disperse across from one side to the other. ( SA / NA and India / Asia

Mass extinctions Mark borders of Eras: 251 Permian (Paleo-Mesozoic) 65.5 Cretaceous (K/T boundary; Meso-Cenozoic) Caused by a major change that affects many species at once.

Permian Mass Extinction 90% marine & 80% insect species gone 251 MYA Took place in about 5 MY 2 Possible causes: Pangaea forming Extreme volcanism- Global warming, climate change. Drop in sea level, loss of shoreline & intertidal, More severe continental weather Isolated species come together and compete, causing extinctions Paleozoic to Mesozoic boundary

Cretaceous extinctions 65.5 MYA Wiped out 50 % marine species, on land many families of plants and the Dinosaurs. Mesozoic to Cenozoic boundary. Climate cooled and shallow seas retreated. Mammals and angiosperms around earlier, but survived and radiated out to dominant now empty niches Many diverse lineages from algae to dinosaurs disappeared at once.

Alvarez-Impact theory

Chicxulub Crater- sonar image

Impact hypothesis Anomalous Iridium layer marks boundary layer – element common in meteorites Chicxulub Crater Explains large water scarring in NA. Global winter lasting years, collapsed food chains. Ignite tremendous wildfires, acid rain. Some lineages were dying out before impact. Probably a final and sudden blow coming at a time of change, with continental drift, climate change.

Conditions that favor fossilization: Having Hard parts – shells, bones,cysts Get buried, trapped Marine species Marsh, flooding areas Abundant species (with many individuals) Long lived species (as a species) Avoid eroding away Get discovered

Limitations of Fossils record Has to die in right place under the right conditions. Most things don’t get into the fossil record Biased: Highly favors hard parts, abundant, long lived species organisms. Lots of missing organisms Hard to find, only certain areas highly researched (NA. Europe)

Earth’s history as a clock

Major events Origin of prokaryote cell Formation oxygen atmosphere Origin of eukaryote cell Multi-Origins of multicellularity Cambrian explosion of animal phyla

What we do know: Earth is old, about 4.6 BYA Oldest fossils appear to be filamentous bacteria at about 3.5 BYA. Formed layers like today’s stromatolites Bacteria predated eukaryotes

Early Prokaryote Fossils

Endosymbiosis Fig. 26.13

Endosymbiosis Theory Descendant of Archae develops eukaryote type membrane system and nucleus Eukaryote cell engulfs bacteria that survive in the cell and develop into plastids and mitochondria We’ll review evidence later in eukaryote chapter. 2.1 BYA

Endosymbiosis – membrane layers

Coral Living example of endosymbiotic relationships

Earliest Multicellular organisms 1.5 MYA

Cambrian Explosion Most animal appear at same time phyla in 20 MY Long fuse- began earlier

Systematics Taxonomy is naming, & organizing organisms, both living and dead, into groups. Systematics, use evolutionary relationships as the classification hierarchies.

Systematics debates: Biggest debates, and changes will be at higher levels of classification. Shows scientists interest levels. Most lower level groups figured out. Question the origins of these groups Rely heavily on comparative gene sequences.

Debates in Evolution Most lay people think the big debate is around the origins of humans from apes. Most scientists see this area as pretty clear, with details to be worked out by specialists. Origins of Domains, Kingdoms the big questions in evolutionary science today.
